Rollin' in the Yeast
Parody of "Reelin' in the Years" by Steely Dan
(Mark 8:15; Matthew 5:20, 16:6-12; Luke 12:1; 1 Corinthians 15:17-19; Ezekiel 10:13-16; Acts 23:3)
Your Everlasting Father, you can't see no faith in that
So you have to preach on something that you think is more abstract
Well, you wouldn't even know a Bible if you held it in your hands
The things you think impressive I can't understand
Are you rollin' in the yeast
So you can make it rise
Are you fattenin' up the geese
Have you had ‘em stuffed with lies
Are you really just a weed
Growin' up late at night
I'll be gatherin' up the sheep
That you've scattered left and right
You've been tellin' me you worshipped Jesus till you were 17
Around that time they told you Christ was only just a dream
They weakened you in college till you turned out like they planned
You think you have some knowledge I can't understand
Are you rollin' in the yeast
So you can make it rise
Are you fattenin' up the geese
Have you had ‘em stuffed with lies
Are you reelin' in the fish
Don't even waste your time
You'd be better off than this
If you led a life of crime
I've seen a lot of funny things but never thought I'd find
A Christian wagin' holy war against the Lord divine
After all the things He's done for me I'm fine with what I am
The finks who make like Judas I can't understand
Are you rollin' in the yeast
So you can make it rise
Are you fattenin' up the geese
Have you had ‘em stuffed with lies
Are you feelin' unbelief
Throwin' away your life
Are you sad, you Sadducee
Are you mad at Matthew 5
Matthew 16:6
"Be careful,” Jesus said to them. “Be on your guard against the yeast of the
Pharisees and Sadducees."
