Nebuchadnezzar the King of the Jews

Nebuchadnezzar the King of the Jews
Sold his wife for a pair of shoes
When the shoes began to pinch
Nebuchadnezzar began to flinch

When the shoes began to wear
Nebuchadnezzar began to swear
When the shoes began to leak
Nebuchadnezzar began to squeak

When the shoes began to crack
Nebuchadnezzar said “Take them back!”
The moral of this story’s true
If your wife you want to lose
Don’t sell her for a pair of shoes!
