Have a good laugh with this lemon-related joke.

A priest was tidying up his church after a sermon when a man came in.
“I am sorry to bother you, Father, but can I ask you for half a lemon?”

“Of course, my son,” said the priest, who fetched half a lemon for the man. But before I give it to you, can you tell me why you need it?”

The man says nothing, grabs the lemon, and rushes out of the church. The priest tries to chase him, but the man is too fast, so he quickly loses the priest.

The priest is a bit angry because of this, so he goes for a run every day for a week to prevent this from happening again.

The following Sunday comes, and the priest cleans his church after a sermon when the man comes in.

“I am sorry to bother you, Father, but can I ask you for half a lemon?”

The man says nothing, grabs the lemon, and rushes out of the church. The priest follows him. The man jumps into the river next to the town and swims over it. The priest cannot swim, so he loses the man again.

The priest goes for a swim every single day over the week.
