The Tablecloth (Peter's Vision)
Parody of "Over My Head (Cable Car)" by The Fray
(Acts 10:1-11:18, Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 1:8)

I never knew
I never knew that Heaven isn't just for Jews
That everyone to choose His Way could go there, too
I learned a lot when I was dreamin' on the roof
And then a menagerie
Was coming down from Heaven right on top of me
With every kind of critter I would never eat
He spoke unto me, and it's pretty clear, and

Every animal's hoverin'
Over my head, over my head
(I) ain't second-guessing God this time
He's always right, He's always right

It's prearranged
And things keep gettin' stranger -- like a different age
To save the heathen Greeks is another stage
The Lord implemented so we all can get to God
But that's just like God
To find some other men who were distraught
As I view the animals on the tablecloth
Hanging above
And they can't be called unclean, and

Every animal's hoverin'
Over my head, over my head
(I) ain't second-guessing God this time
He's always right, He's always right
REPEAT

And suddenly I recall a word from the past
The Great Commission part He told last
I knew He knew and it's come to pass
And now a sound
A few guys on the grounds from a Roman's house
They say God said He wants him to bring me 'round
So I guess I'll go down to them
(The) Lord said to help them

Every animal's hoverin'
Over my head, over my head
(I) ain't second-guessing God this time
He's always right, He's always right

Everyone knows -- He's always right
Every animal's over my head
Hoverin' over my head
Up over my
CHORUS

Acts 10:11-12
He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners. It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air.
