Parody of "Back in the U.S.S.R." by The Beatles

(Matthew 5:17, Galatians 3:24-25, 2 Timothy 3:16)

Ooh I finally finished readin' the O-L-D Hebrew Testament last night

All the way I prayed that God would have mercy

Man, I'm glad that we've got Christ

I'm back in the New Testament

You don't know what you got till it's gone, boy

Back in the New Testament

Genesis was long -- I hardly noticed it

Gee, it didn't seem that long

Three weeks later on I'm stuck in Exodus

Wonderin' what the heck went wrong

I'm back in the New Testament

With Matthew, Mark, Luke and then John, boy

Acts of the Apostles, next the Epistles

Last the Apocalypse of John

Well, the Jewish laws came from God's own mouth

Please don't get me wrong

But God's own Son came to live 'em out

He told us that in Ma-ma-matthew 5 verse 17 all along

I'm back in the New Testament

We're only half done with this song, boy

Back in the New Testament

Well, you can't have Jesus Christ without

The Old Testament

The Law was given to point sin out

And lead us all to Christ - Galatians 3:24-25, my oh my

Moses' laws, the Psalms and Prophets they all count

Take them as your Daddy's word

Genesis through Malachi - I read them all

But admit that I prefer

To be back in the New Testament

You don't know what you got till it's gone, boy

Back in the New Testament

*NOTE: To get this song to rhyme correctly, whenever the word "Testament" appears in the chorus, you should pronounce it like this: "Test-a-MONT," so it sounds kind of French. Try it; it works! When the word appears in the verse, just pronounce it the regular way.

Matthew 5:17

"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them."
