Veggie Tales - Jonah Was A Prophet Lyrics
When I was a boy I went to church back home in ArizonaAnd that is where I heard the tale of a man whose name was JonahNow Jonah was a prophet, but that's not why he's rememberedThey tell the tale, Cause in a whale he nearly was dismembered!ChorusJonah was a prophetOo-ooh!But he really never got itSad but true!And if you watch it you can spot itA-doodley-doo!He did not get the point!Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to meExactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!ChorusNow Jonah Set Sail On A Pirate shipIn a dreadful galeGot eaten up by a giant whaleBut then it's not to be saidYou think he would learn alotFrom being saved from an awful spotBut the second chance that he had gotHe didn't want to be spreadNow poor old JonahAnd now he's all alone-ahGotta use a megaphone-ahTo get it through to his head-Hey!ChorusNow during your life you prob'ly don't ride on a camelAnd you prob'ly won't wake up inside a large aquatic mammalBut all the same like Jonahthere is something you can doEveryone deserves to get a second chance from you!Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to meExactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!Repeat chorusx2
