"Some Fundie That I Used To Know"

(feat. Elizabeth)

[Joseph]

Now and then I think of when we were still courting

How I was sure that God had LAID you on my heart

Father said that you were RIGHT for me

And I looked forward to your COMpany

We met three times and made sure NOT to touch each other

Courtship should protect you from a CERtain kind of sadness

Preparing only for the ring, always the ring

(So) I didn't date but rather BUILT a house

Filled with beige things for my FUture spouse

And I'll admit that I had looked... forward to sex

So you didn't have to call it off

Two-hours beFORE the wedding SHOWer... you say-God GAVE you cold feet?

Well I don't even need your love

But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

No you didn't have to stoop so low

Have your father call my FAther and then BLAME it on God

I guess that I don't need you though

Now you're just some fundie that I used to know

Now you're just some fundie that I used to know

Now you're just some fundie that I used to know

[Elizabeth]

Now and THEN I think of ALL the ways... our lives were DIfferent

YOU had me believing I would BE the one who had to change

But I don't wanna LIVE that way

Obeying every word your DAD might say

You said that you could let him go

And we wouldn't have to only go to DAD's church at the OLD folks' home!

[Joseph]

But you didn't have to call it off

Two-hours beFORE the wedding SHOWer... you say-God GAVE you cold feet?

I guess it's time to SCRUB my blog

Make-a FInal post that blames you and then WIPE the logs

I wonder why I FEEL so low

I-had a proper COURTship... which was GUARDing my heart

Seems pieces are still MISsing though

Maybe dating ISn't such a horror show

[x2]

Some fundie

(I used to know)

Some fundie

(Now you're just some fundie that I used to know)

(I used to know)

(That I used to know)

(I used to know)

Some fundie

This is a hard song to do because so much of the refrain is words slammed in there with two syllables on one beat etc, I put some capitals showing I can make it work.

I used to write parodies all the time as a kid, so I know how much work this took. Kudos.

But could they be naked and painted in the video?

[luckystone]

I love it!!! Congrats

[WonderingInWA]

LOVE it! Now if we could get Joe and Liz to do the video with all the paint and stuff. LOLOLOL!

[erunerune]

I love this!!!!! I had my husband in stitches and was making myself CRY telling him about the Maxwell lyric-trolling, and he only has the vaguest idea who they are (I make a concerted effort not to rattle on about my internet fundie issues most of the time and I want credit for this dammit!).
