Amnon Was a Decadent Dude
2 Sam 13
(A.m. on 18 June, 2021)
Amnon was a decadent dude;
Treated that girl right rude.
She was the sister of the son of David;
Didn’t matter, he wasn’t behavin’.
Wanted her so bad, it made him sick.
Her beauty roused his lust in a panic.
Well, Amnon had a friend, Jonadab,
‘Bout as kind as the claws on a crab!
Said I know a way you can get that girl;
Listen to me now, got a plan to unfurl.
You lie on your bed and pretend to be ill;
She’ll care for you and you’ll get your thrill.
So he did according to the plan
And he ate that food from her hand.
She baked him a cake; he said, “Lie with me sister!”
(Wicked bold and worse than sinister!)
“Well no my brother! Don’t do such a thing!
People will talk and bells will ring.
And as for me, what about my reproach?
You need a counselor; got to find a coach.”
But David wouldn’t give a listen
In her eyes all he saw was that glisten.
