Romantic Letter
Parody of "The Letter" by The Box Tops
((Romans 1:16, 5:8, 8:1))
In the epistles, boy, it's very plain
Ain't much time, so get your facts straight
Romans is the one that was goin' to Rome
So now, baby, it's a Romantic letter
I don't care how much Nietzsche said God is dead
God took us back and He saved me instead
Romans says that God planned it all along
So now, baby, it's a romantic letter
It's a romantic letter cause we couldn't live
Without the Lord's love
This epistle says to me that God took us back
And He'll take us up above
Anyway, yeah
Give me a minute more, I'll demonstrate
Check out 5 verse 8, 'cause that's great
Lo, the face of God – dyin' on a cross
So now, baby, it's a romantic letter
It's a romantic letter cause we couldn't live
Without the Lord's love
Listen, mister, can't you see that God took us back
And He'll take us up above?
Anyway, yeah
Give me a ticket for the narrow way
Ain't much time, so make a fast break
Romans 8 verse 1 drives the point home
'Cause now, baby, it's a romantic letter
Because now, baby, it's a romantic letter
