Keep Your Ham to Yourself
Parody of "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" by The Georgia Satellites
(Leviticus 11; Mark 7:18-20; Colossians 2:16-17; Romans 14:1-6; 1 Corinthians 8:8-13, 10:23-33; Acts 10:9-16, 15:20, 15:28-29; 1 Timothy 4:3-5; Hebrews 13:9)
I got a little pigs in a blanket, gonna bring a ring of links
Of some sausage ‘n’ tenderloin bacon, green ham and eggs
Or eat some pork chops, how ‘bout some plain old ribs
Always, no hoggy, no piggy, you know it’s in Leviticus
My honey, my baby, don’t put my lunch upon no shelf
She said, don’t hand me no swine and keep your ham to yourself
Bacon, baby, bacon
Why you wanna treat meat this way
You know, it’s still my supper choice
I still feel it tastes great
That’s when she told me the pure meats
Were poultry, fish, sheep and cows
And said, no hoggy, no piggy, or food you get from any sow
My honey, my baby, don’t put my lunch upon no shelf
She said, don’t hand me no swine and keep your ham to yourself
(They’re kosher here!)
See,I started to feel bad
And I was about to give in
That’s when I started thinking about the New Covenant
The part that talks about dinner
I said, Honey, Acts 10:15 would suggest that I’m right
Please read Colossians 2:16, Mark 7:19, don’t fight
And what about Romans verse 14:3 if nothing else
She said, don’t hand me no swine and keep your ham to yourself
Mark 7:18-19
“Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing
that enters a person from the outside can defile them? For
it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and
then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all
foods clean.)
