The Lyrics

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints (a.k.a. LDS or Mormons) are expected to pay ten percent of their income, or "gain" to the church in the form of a tithe. For many, this obligation poses a significant hardship, but will do so at whatever cost in the name of their chosen deity.
Your blessings don't come for free
So please give ten percent to me
'Cause I'm the tithe man, yeah, I'm the tithe man

New church built out by the mall
Your tithes help pay for it all
'Cause I'm the tithe man, yeah, I'm the tithe man

Mormon boy, don't beat your meat
Sundays in the church we meet
Keep your hair and your clothes neat

On fasting Sundays you cannot eat
Pay your ten percent, don't ever cheat
Or with the bishop then you will meet
'Cause I track it on my tithing sheet

It don't matter if you're poor
Be glad I don't ask for more
'Cause I'm the tithe man, yeah, I'm the tithe man

Advice for those who do not pay
To get to the Kingdom you must pay your way
'Cause I'm the tithe man, yeah, I'm the tithe man
And you'll pay it to no one but me

I have Mormon in-laws. It's a cult. They tacked on the JC part in an attempt to make us think otherwise.

Boy, the way churches extort money. You don't see Jews doing that. Five servings of lime jello for your parody.
