A fun tune ...

Austin Lounge Lizards - A Case of Coors Beer (19910
www.youtube.com

Lyrics excerpt ...

Not surprisingly, lyrics do not seem to be available ...


OK, another link with a different take ...

tvtropes.org

... The Austin Lounge Lizards are a satirical folk/country/bluegrass band based out of Austin, Texas. The band consists of founding members Hank Card, Tom Pittman, and Conrad Deisler, along with Darcie Deaville (2008) and Bruce Jones (2010).

The band is best known for highly literate, sharply pointed lyrics that poke fun at politics, love, religion and the culture in general. ...


Yeah, that's a pretty good assessment ...

Another from the Austin Lounge Lizards ...

Austin Lounge Lizards - Jesus Loves Me (But He Can't Stand You) (1991)
www.youtube.com

Lyrics excerpt ...

madmusic.com

...
I know you smoke, I know you drink that brew,
I just can't abide a sinner like you.
God can't either, that's why I know it's true,
That Jesus loves me but he can't stand you.

I'm going straight to heaven, boys, when I die,
'cause I've crossed every T and I've dotted every I
Why, my preacher tells me I'm god's kind of guy,
That's why Jesus loves me, but you're gonna fry.

God loves all his children, by gum,
That doesn't mean he won't incinerate some,
Can't you feel those hot flames licking you?

I'm raising my kids in a righteous way,
So don't be sending your kids to my house to play,
Yours will grow up stoned, left leaning and gay,
I know - Jesus told me on the phone today.

Jesus loves me, this I know
And he told me where you're gonna go,
There's room for your kind down below
Whoa, whoa, whoa

Jesus loves me, he loves me real good.

I know he does.

He called me up on the phone today and told me how much he loves me.

He said, "Son, I love you."

He speaks English pretty well, considering it's a second language for him.

You can talk to him, too, you know.

I've got a 900- number in Tulsa you can call him at, I do it all the time. He'll be glad to hear from you. I talk to him everyday.

Jesus love me, but he can't stand you.
...

Vices, eh? Well, I got one for ya. This is off of an 1982 album called "One Vice at a Time" by obscure AC/DC rip-off band Krokus. If AC/DC actually wrote and performed this absurdly catchy tune, it would've probably been a major hit:
