Veggietales - Jonah Was A Prophet lyrics

When I was a boy I went to church back home in Arizona And it was there I learned the tale of a man whose name was Jonah Now Jonah was a prophet, but that's not why he's remembered They tell the tale, Cause in a whale he nearly was dismembered! CHORUS Jonah was a prophet Oo-ooh! But he really never got it Sad but true! And if you watch him you can spot it A-doodley-doo! He did not get the point! Compa**ion and mercy from me to you and you to me Exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point! CHORUS Now Johnah Set Sail On A Pirate ship In a dreadful gale Got eaten up by a giant whale There is no more to be said Now poor old Jonah And now he's all alone-ah Got to use a megaphone-ah To get it through to his head-HEY! CHORUS Now during your life you prob'ly don't ride on a camel And you prob'ly won't wake up inside a large aquatic mammal But now in your life there is something you can do Everyone deserves a second chance to come from you! Compa**ion and merc from me to you and you to me Exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point! REPEAT CHORUSX2
