Leaps tall buildings in a single bound
Is more powerful than a locomotive
Is faster than a speeding bullet
Walks on water, and
Gives policy to GOD.

Is more powerful than a switch engine
Is just as fast as a speeding bullet
Walks on water if the sea is calm
Talks with GOD.

AND favorable winds...
Is almost as powerful as a switch engine
Is faster than a speeding BB
Walks on water in an indoor swimming pool

Barely clears a quonset hut
Looses tug-of-war with a locomotive
Can fire a speeding bullet

to leap small buildings
Is run over by locomotive

Is not issued ammunition
Can stay afloat with a life preserver
Talks to walls.


NO CODE TECH:
Falls over doorsteps when entering buildings
Says, "Look at the choo-choo"
Wets himself with a water pistol
Plays in mud puddles
Mumbles to himself.


AMATEUR EXTRA:
Lifts buildings and walks under them
Kicks locomotives off the track
Catches speeding bullets in their teeth
AND EATS THEM
Freezes water with a single glance
THEY ARE GOD !
