LYRICS:
I AM THE VERY MODEL OF A MODERN FUNDAMENTALIST
Lyrics by Jim Trumm
Based on the song by Gilbert and Sullivan
I am the very model of a modern fundamentalist
Im not merely judgmental, Im the absolute judgmentalest!
I always follow scripture and I act on Gods authority,
Though marital fidelity was never my priority.
I married first one husband, then two others, then another one
Because I think one man is pretty much like any other one.
Ive never been too troubled by the dubious legalities
Of sex outside of marriage or of other trivialities.
But when it comes to icky stuff like homosexuality,
Im always very strident with my Puritan morality.
In short in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist,
I am the very model of a modern fundamentalist.
Yee-Haw!
(In short in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist
She is the very model of a modern fundamentalist!)
In questions of behavior I fall back on my Old Testament
(Though saying no to shrimp is way too much of an impediment).
I simply pick the verses that support my ideology
And hold on fast and true to my intolerant theology.
Ill ride this hobbyhorse until Im richer than a sybarite,
Therell always be good money in denouncing godless sodomites.
Ill put my name as author on some books that I can barely read
And get a show on cable to inform the world what God decreed.
My husbands all agree that I know more about what marriage is
Than five Supreme Court justices whose law my faith disparages.
In short in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist,
I am the very model of a modern fundamentalist.
(In short in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist
She is the very model of a modern fundamentalist!)
Perhaps if I learned what is meant by constitutionality
If I could do my job with requisite impartiality
If I could join in marriage two young men who might be thespians,
Or issue nuptial licenses to enterprising lesbians,
If I could see that love is love no matter what the sexes are
And understand that gays are just like me my three exes are,
In short, if I could finally get a does of moral clarity
Id find out what is meant by the idea of Christian charity
Nah
Til then Ill flaunt the law and draw my wages from the treasury
And grab a photo op with my next husband Michael Huckabee
Til then in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist,
I am the very model of a modern fundamentalist!
(Til then in matters biblical and spiritual and Calvinist
She is the very model of a modern fundamentalist!)
YEE-HAW!!!!!
