Hosea
Parody of "Josie" by Steely Dan
(Hosea 1:1-3:5, Romans 9:25-26)

We're gonna shake up the Bible users
‘Cause Hosea loves Gomer
We're gonna cheer up the lonesome losers
‘Cause Hosea loves Gomer
Hey, but Gomer's walkin' the street
She oughta be in Vegas
No doubt you can't say the girl hates men
Lays down for all her wages
But Hosea loves Gomer

Though Hosea loves Gomer
She's no good
She's a wife with a wayward look
She's the wrong dame for nice guys
She strays like a pony with her bridle untied

Blow up the wedding chapel
She'll never stay home, no
Line up your baddest apples
She'll take ‘em all out tonight
She never misses a beat
Like all the woeful Israelites
Ran after false gods the world gave them
She doesn't care it's not right
But Hosea loves Gomer

Though Hosea loves Gomer
She's so bad
She's got kids that have different dads
She's a darn shame -- a wildfire
A brazen type of woman with a price on hire
LEAD

But Hosea loves Gomer
He's so good
He provides like the Savior would
Things will all change -- when Christ arrives
The days like in Romans chapter 9:25
