Amos - ApologetiX

What are you doin' here, you looney?

No-one made you prophesy

You’d better run -- you’ll die unless you don’t

You know you’re just some foolish guy

Amos -- go back to watchin' sheep

Amos -- stop makin' prophecies

Amos -- are you gonna heed my stern advice?

So why’d you visit a foreign nation

When your own land is just due south?

Goodbye, you fool

Don’t tell us what to do

Or Jeroboam will cut you down

Amos -- go back to watchin' sheep

Amos -- and sycamore-fig trees

Amos -- are you gonna heed my stern advice?

We’re a successful civilization

And our economy’s goin' great

So please don’t say

Another word today

About our moral lapse and faith

REPEAT FIRST

Amos 7: 12−13

Then Amaziah said to Amos, «Get out, you seer!

Go back to the land of Judah.

Earn your bread there and do your prophesying there.

Don’t prophesy anymore at

Bethel, because this is the king’s sanctuary and the temple of the kingdom.»
