Feast Had No Wine

(John 2:1-11)
parody of Sweet Caroline written and performed by Neil Diamond

Wedding began
In Cana drinks are flowin’
Jesus and Co. they all go along

Galilee swing
Dancing to strings and drummers
You can now read in the book of John
Sad kitchenhands
Runnin’ out
Tons to feed
What to do

Feast had no wine
Make signs Mary deemed He should
First He declined
But then He did what He could
It’s now time

They took six or five
Jars meant for ceremony
They filled them up till they were full

And then they poured
Pouring wine out to goblets
Now there’s no thirst, wine appears as new

One, number one
Mir’cle count
Look and see
Wine for you

Feast had no wine
Good wine never seen this good
MC surprised
Who’d believe they’d save the good
Oh, no, no

Feast had no wine
Disciples never seen this good
They see the sign
What they’ve seen they’ve understood
Feast had new wine
