GRACE: Living Off The Eternal Welfare Department!?!

The Sign Out Front Read

"Laughter Doeth Good Like A Medicine
And
Bitterness Destroys Your Soul!"

The Interior Wasn't Anything To Write Home About!
It Was Clean, White, Fresh-Smelling
And
Peaceful
And
The Workers There Are A Heavenly Delight!


They're So Helpful And Accommodating
Without Overwhelming You With Reams Of 

Paperwork And Red Tape
And
I Was In And Out Of There 

In Two Shakes Of A Lamb's Tail!

You Are A, Uh, Ahm... A Snot-Faced Liar!

That's Strong Language Coming From You, Baby Girl!
Why Are You Being So Acid!?!

I'm Being Acid Brudda Man
Becausen Their Ain't No Welfare Department 
On This Here Planet That Is At One And The Same Time
User-Friendly Accommodating ... As You State 
With Workers Of Heavenly Delight!

Who Said Anything About 
Going To A Welfare Department 
Anywhere On This Planet!?!

Huh!?!

Okay, Bright Spark!
If The Welfare Department You Went To 
Isn't On This Planet Called Terra Firm Aka Earth
Aka The Scene Of Mankind's Fall From Grace
Pray Tell Us Where You Went To The "Welfare Department!?!"

Sweet Girl, You Need To Raise Your Standards A Smidge!
I Went To The Eternal Welfare Department
And
I Spoke To The Director
The Man In Charge ... First!

He Gave Me Bread And Water
And
A Gigantic Stack Of High-Value Vouchers
Usable By Me Only And Alone!


That Sounds Truly Amazing! 

Instead Of Carrying Around
A Load Of Paper Filled With Legalese
I've Got Something I Can Really Spend!

Tell Us What You Got
And Don't Leave Anything Out!
