The American Translation

Lời bài hát The American Translation của J. Riley Henderson

Intro Verse 1 My Favorite Bible Story Is The One Where Herod Wins 'Cus The Wise Men Followed The Law And Showed Him Where Jesus Lived. My Favorite Biblical Tale Is The One Where They Killed That Broad, 'Cus The Pharisees Caught Her Sleeping Around, And Jesus Said, 'Hand Me A Rock!' Chorus 1 My Favorite Scriptural Call's To Hate Your Neighbor Like You Hate Yourself. Winner Take All, Might Makes Law, And All Commies And Queers Go Straight To Hell. My Favorite Part Of The Book's Where Israel's Always Right. Ain't That What Ezekiel Said? I Can't Remember Off The Top Of My Head, But Verse 2 The Coolest Thing That Jesus Did Is When He Took All That Kid's Fish, And Said, 'All Y'all Freeloaders Can Starve, I'm God, Not Make-A-Wish'. And When He Walked Through Jerusalem And Saw Grifters In The Church, He Said 'Blessed Be, And Far Be It From Me To Stop The Free Market At Work!' Chorus 2 The Good Samaritan Had It Right When He Let That Hebrew Die, 'Cus He Knew If The Shoe Were On The Other Foot, That Jew'd A'walked Right On By. I Really Get A Rush When The Camel Gets Through The Eye, 'Cus It Means The Road To Heaven Ain't A One-Way Street With An American Dream And Some Elbow Grease. Bridge (Pm Whole Section) I Love When John The Baptist Read The Room, And Dropped The Act, Saul Kept Following Orders, And Levi Kept Collecting The Tax, And How God Didn't Flinch When David Killed A Friend To Bang His Wife, 'Cus God Approves All Leaders, And Boys Are Boys For Life. Chorus I Take Great Comfort Knowing Jesus Felt And Thought Like Me, And That I'm Not Picking-Cherries, 'Cus I'm Picking From The Tree. We All Know The Lord Respects Traditions. Borders, Flags, And Constitutions, And Corporate Wars, And Final Solutions Are How He Meant The World To Be, And That's How We Know, Of All The Nations God Shed His Grace Upon, We're His Favorite One.
