Lyrical Miracle Contest #6


In this contest you need to come up with words to match the tune,
"Yellow Submarine" by the Beatles.
If you don't know the tune, I'm sure William Shatner
or Bishop Fulton Sheen recorded it at sometime...
The chosen one will be announced on Thursday, March 19th.
So put on your theological hats and start writing!
In case of a tie, the winner will be chosen by rock, paper, scissors.

  1. I've been promised health and wealth
    It's a perfect life they sell
    But the blessing that I seek
    Is a cure for crooked teeth

    God will give me what I want
    Riches, mansion, cars, and yacht
    But the thing I really need
    Is some sparkling, snow-white teeth

    I want white teeth just like Joel Osteen
    Look at how they gleam, see their pearly sheen
    I want white teeth just like Joel Osteen
    Look at how they gleam, see their pearly sheen

  3. Jello Theology

    In the town where I was born,
    Lived a man so friendly,
    And he told us what we liked
    Of his elastic theology.

    He spoke only of God’s love
    Like Santa on Christmas Eve,
    Left the nasty judgment out
    Of his jello theology.

    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology.
    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology.

    And his church lets anyone in,
    Cause he fits to meet their every whim,
    And the band, to him they praise.

    (Trumpets play)

    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology.
    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology.

    (You’re a good person, Mr. Parker, a good person!
    God will give you whatever you want!
    He loves you just the way you are!
    Claim it! Claim it!)

    As we serve the god of me
    No need to end our pursuit of green,
    Our own ambition is ours to seek,
    In our jello theology,

    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology.
    We all live under jello theology,
    Jello theology, jello theology….

  5. I realize now that I posted these lyrics ahead of time. But, they were both winners...CONTEST IS STILL ON...if you have some creative lyrics post 'em and maybe they will be photoshopped to the tune of "Calvinistic Cartoons".

  6. In the contest instructions I had said, "In case of a tie, the winner will be chosen by rock, paper, scissors." Well, someone broke the scissors, then wrapped it in the paper, tied it to a rock and threw it into an active volcano.
