The pastor is coming to visit.

We need to clean up this mess

Because him we want to impress.

We need to pick the underwear up off the ground

And remember to turn the TV down.

Let’s comb our hair.

Try to remember in his presence not to swear.

Take out the trash.

Empty the tray full of ash.

Spray the apples and cinnamon from a can.

Don’t forget to turn on the fan.

We need to empty the sink

And mop the kitchen floor that is not supposed to be pink.

Put the dog away.

She’ll bite if he tries to play.

Should I put coffee on to brew?

Do you think he’ll want something sweet to chew?

Run the vacuum.

Put away the shoes.

We need to clear our plates.

I hope he’s going to be late.

Someone is knocking on the door.

Get up off your butt

To see who and what.

Hi, pastor.

Please, come in.

How was your day?

Our’s went by way too faster.

Hey, let me ask you.

Is my messy house a sin?
