The Lyrics

I'm religious by nature, and since religious-themed parodies seem to be the big thing around here, i thought i might write a few.
Hey, don't write The Lord off yet
I'ts only in your head that he seems weird
A waste of time
Just try to think
'bout all the stuff that's cool
'cause when you get to heaven it'll be there
For all of time

It just takes some thought
Little girl you're in the middle of your time
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right

Hey, you know it all seems fun
But you'll never get there on your own
So don't try sin
Your life right now
Is gonna have to change
It doesn't matter if it takes a while
If you just try

It just takes some thought
Little girl you're in the middle of your time
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right

It just takes some thought
Little girl you're in the middle of your time
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right

Hey, don't write The Lord off yet
I'ts only in your head this stuff seems weird
A waste of time
Just do your best
Try not to break the rules
And don't you worry what the others think
and do and say...

It just takes some thought
Little girl you're in the middle of your time
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right

It just takes some thought
Little girl you're in the middle of your time
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right
In case anyone's interested, i'm also beginning a recording project of religious parodies. If anyone has any good ideas, email me at cmblast42@hotmail.com. Please don't send comments here, just ideas. Oh, and with the voting, replace the "How funny" Field with "How Serious" because this parody is not meant to be funny, none of mine are.

ok, the pacing was pretty good, a bit off in one or two places but overall pretty good. i dont think its meant to be funni, its not a funni topic. overall i thought u give across a good message in places and also go into sum extreme preaching in other places like telling them they cant get into heaven on their own. i dont like that, im not a religious person, but i love the original song and the message it gives, and ur song carried through sum of those messages. pretty good job, good luck with ur recording ambitions

good, but you probably should've added how you need Jesus Christ to get into heaven, not just good deeds. keep up the good work

I know what you said, but I just wanted to tell you, "Good job!" Your Chistian-parody songwriting is on par with Apologetix's!
