One-two-three four five, six seven-eight-nine-ten...

[MC Paul Barman]
I been in the desert for years, time to get us out of it
I climbed Mount Sinai, carved ideas in a tablet
These mortals are horrible with immoral cavorting
They must check these 10 Commandments from their LordKing
Commandment Uno: I am the Lord thy God
So similar to Commandment Two tho: You now knew no
Other gods before me, leave Osiris behind
I'm ya highest authority, to act morally
Thou shalt not make unto me any graven image
Forget all about your vintage pagan lineage
Make a pilgrimage to the Third Commandment:
Don't take my name in vain, Goddamn it
Fourth Commandment: Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy
Sleep in late Saturday and wake up slowly
Every other day, pay Me like you owe Me
Fifth Commandment drops the bomb
(((ka-BOOM))) Obey thy pops and mom
Sixth Commandment is a big deal, a'ight?
Thou shalt not kill... any Israelite
Seventh Commandment: Don't commit adultery
That only works for Zeus, you'll hate what the results'll be
Eighth Commandment: Thou shalt not steal
Starve if you need a hot meal
Sorry! That's the law, God's real!
Ninth Commandment: Don't bear false witness
Unless it resolves the source of this hit-list
Tenth Commandment: Thou shalt covet not
Thy neighbor's wife if you've a life you love a lot
And when I say "neighbor," I mean neighbor next door
You can take the lives of the wives of neighboring tribes
While they're in labor with sabres and knives
Thou shalt also covet not thy neighbor's house, ox, or donkey
Thou shalt covet not, I can't say it more strongly
Okay God, that's quite a double standard
You covet our attention, you been in a bubble pampered
Eleventh Commandment is so underrated
Keep church and state completely separated
Commandment 12's think for yourselves
Who else but you can keep track of this game of shells?
The road to hell is paved with magic spells
Matter fact, keep those last two under your hat
And climb back down the mountain with this smokescreen and thunderclap

One-two-three four five, six seven-eight-nine-ten eleven tweeeeeel-ve!
