Lyrics Original Translation Bilingual
You all know the Bible Is made of Testaments old and new You been told it's just those two parts Or only one if you're a Jew But what if I were to tell you There's a fresh third part out there Which was found by a hip new prophet Who had a little Donny Osmond flair? Have you heard of the All-American Prophet? The blonde-haired, blue-eyed voice of God He didn't come from the Middle East Like those other holy men No, God's favorite prophet was All-American I'm gonna take you back to Biblical times, 1823 An American man named Joe living on a farm In the holy land of Rochester, New York You mean the Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith? That's right, that young man spoke to God He spoke to God, and God said "Joe, people really need to know that the Bible Isn't two parts, there's a part three to the Bible, Joe And I, God, have anointed you to dig up this part three That is buried by a tree on a hill in your backyard" Wow, God says go to your backyard and start digging? That makes perfect sense Joseph Smith went up on that hill And dug where he was told And deep in the ground Joseph found shining plates of gold "What are these Golden Plates? Who buried them here and why?" Then appeared an Angel His name was Moroni "I am Moroni" The All-American Angel My people lived here long, long ago This is a history of my race Please read the words within We were Jews who met with Christ But we were All-American But don't let anybody see these plates except for you They are only for you to see Even if people ask you to show the Plates to them, don't Just copy them onto normal paper Even though this might make them question If the Plates are real or not This is sort of what God is going for Joseph took the Plates home And wrote down what he found inside He turned those Plates into a book Then he rushed into town and cried "Hey, God spoke to me and gave me This blessed ancient tome He hath commanded me to publish it And stick it in every home" Wow, so the Bible is actually a trilogy And The Book of Mormon is Return of the Jedi? I'm interested Now many people didn't believe the Prophet Joseph Smith They thought he'd made up this part three That was buried by a tree on the hill in his backyard "Liar" But Joe said "This is no lie Speak to God all the time And he told me to head West" "So I'll take my part three from the hill with the tree Feel free if you'd like to come along with me To the Promised Land" "The Promised Land?" "Paradise on the West Coast Nothing but fruit and fields as far as the eye can see" Have you heard of the All-American Prophet? He found a brand new book about Jesus Christ We are following him to Paradise We call ourselves Mormon And our new religion is All-American Wow, how much does it cost? The Mormons kept on searching for That place to settle down And every time they thought they'd found it They got kicked out of town And even though people wanted To see the Golden Plates Joseph never showed 'em I have maggots in my scrotum Umm okay, well, anyway Now comes the part of our story That get a little bit sad On the way to the Promised Land Mormons made people mad Joseph was shot by an angry mob And knew he'd soon be done "You must lead the people now My good friend, Brigham Young" "Oh God, why are you letting me die Without having me show people the Plates They'll have no proof I was telling the truth or not They'll have to believe it just 'cause Oh, I guess that's kinda what you were going for" The Prophet Joseph Smith died for what he believed in But as followers, they kept heading West And Brigham Young led them to Paradise A sparkling land in Utah they called Salt Lake City And there, the Mormons multiplied And made big Mormon families Generation after generation Until finally, they made me And now it's my job to lead you Where those early settlers were led long ago Have you heard of the All-American Prophet? (Kevin Price) The next in line to be the voice of God (My best friend) He's gonna do something incredible And be Joseph Smith again Because Kevin Price the Prophet is All-American If you order now We'll also throw in a set of steak knives All-American ย
