Mailbag: From the Desk of Theodore Wellborn: "Almost Like A Prayer"

(Ed note: I received this note from long time friend, Theodore from St. Paul and I promised to print it without alteration.)


Almost Like A Prayer

Lord I have everything
I need a bit more
I don’t give a riff
I want all the TIF
For your glory of course

Lord, you’ve given me so much
I need a bit more
I’d give back to the little peeple
By making a big score


I’m not like the sloth
I want all the trough
I can’t bear to share
As you’re well aware
My plans are yours, of course
The Smart Growth Plan

Lord, I just need a bit of TIF
I don’t give a riff
I don’t care of Increment
I just need all the mint

Lord, if it’s OK with You,
I’d like to rush it through
With not a public view
Just a rubber stamp
Lord, it’s up to You
