Is It A Crime

Parody of "Isn't It Time" by The Babies

Parody Lyrics by Jeff James (the Parodud)
Is It A Crime (Matt. 5:21-48, every time we think of Him He puts us back on our feet again ;-)

Calling your brother, ya blast him – quite bad, just like crime.
Scold him, too – it’s a storm, and thy God Christ would never like.

BRIDGE:
(If ya near … to explōd’n), Must try to reconcile.
(Then when to sin you are prone) Ya faithful t’your wife?
(Then I got to tell no lies), My oaths be not crime.
(Christ does an-swer, “You have heard it was said” then,) /
(And Christ is now the answer. Though we question,)
Yet He told new rules for life.
CHORUS:
Say, wait! Is it a crime?
(Is it a crime, is a crime to hate?
Called to show love, would ya for them pray?)
Is it a crime?
(Is it a crime, is a crime to hate?
Called to show love, would ya for them pray?)

Prī’r ta givin’ the off’ring, I should reconcile.
Ya must not wrong, cheat your spouse. Oh, vows be true through farthest time.

(Bridge, chorus)

Christ pleads, these warnings impart.
Said Christ, “Don’t, for tooth, get a tooth.”
Don’t love ta swear – yes be yes. Enemiēs? Must sure bless ‘em too.

(Bridge)
Say, wait! Is it a crime?
(In chapter five, ooh, in Matt it states.
True God above, would we Him obey?) repeat

BTW, if you don't understand the "Paro-Dud" moniker, visit ApologetiX' site and check out the name of J. Jackson's production company; then you'll probably get the play on words.
