Lyrics

They’re gonna put my name on the Bible

They’re gonna put my name on the Bible
It’ll be there chapter and verse
When you open the book eternal
You’re gonna have to read my name first

They’re gonna put my name on the Bible
I made a deal with the Reverend Gimme Moore
When we get through rewriting and editing
It’ll sell a billion for sure

My Bible says “If you take an idle woman And she might tell the world
Be sure to compensate her fair and square”
and “When the gunman comes and shoots those kids in school
Be sure to send the parents thoughts and prayers”

They’re gonna put my name on the Bible
King James had nothing on me
‘Course we’ll have to make a few changes
So people get the right history

My Bible says ”When a stranger’s at your door, close the door and lock it
They’re only pimps and dealers anyway
And if the stranger sneaks inside your door, put him in a prison camp
And send him home the next day”

They’re gonna put my name on the Bible
It’ll be the greatest book they’ve ever known
I’ll be bigger than Jesus
And I won’t have to wear his thorny crown
