The Lyrics

She Jezebel'd the Jews
In olden times.

But she ain't gonna stop Jehu,
Though she's tryin',
Valiantly tryin'.

You know, he can't stand her
And will bring her down.
She treated him badly
As did mad Ahab, her stooge and clown.

Though Jezebel's Jehu's
Mom, matricide
Is tried.

Jezzie (boo!)
Begat two
Sons; Jehu
And one whose
Name is too
Long, so screw
him--no "oo"
Sound to use
Ahab (boo!)
Dad of two
What a crew
Anyhoo. . . .

Jehu slew
His bro, who
Helped mom, who
Fought Jehu.
Not Jehu
Was it threw
His mom through that window, 'n'
They left her there
To serve as the feast
For hounds. . .shinbone
'bout all the whelps don't chew
At dinner time

[fade on sounds of dogs devouring Jezebel's body]

Very good biblical satire
John Jenkins - November 28, 2007 - Report this comment
Very good title, but some of the facts are not biblical. Jezebel and Ahab did have 2 sons, Ahaziah and Jehoram (also known as Joram). Ahaziah succeeded Ahab as king of Israel and Jehoram succeeded Ahaziah. Eventually, Jehu (not the brother of Jehoram or son of Jezebel) executed Jehoram and became king. But you are correct that Jehu did have Jezebel thrown out of a window to die and be eaten by dogs.
