The Advertitudes

Blessed are those with beautiful skin
for they will not grow old

Blessed are those who drive sleek cars
for they will have sex

Blessed are those who fly abroad on holiday
for they shall find paradise

Blessed are those who buy now and pay later
for they shall have it all

Blessed are those who drink the right beer
for they shall be men

Blessed are those who buy the latest CDs
for they shall be top dog

Blessed are those who buy in the sales
for they shall consume more

Blessed are those who are famous
for the world will want to be them

Blessed are those who have powerful jobs
for they will rule the world

Blessed are those who are members of a Gym
for they will think they are healthy

Blessed are those who shop at Tesco's
for every little helps to make them massive profits

Blessed are those who look after number one
for they won't have a care in the world

Blessed are those who dress in the right label
'cause the world will know just how much you spend

Blessed are those who show their power by might
for everyone left will like them
Blessed are those who buy self-help books 

for you will find happiness 
(repeat after me: I will find happiness)
