The Beatles song Paperback Writer, rewritten about the second President (Judge Rutherford) of the Jehovah's Witness (Watchtower) cult's famous false prophecy, that the dead (including Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) would rise from their graves in the year 1925. Rutherford made this claim in the book; 'Millions now living will never die,' page 88. This book was published in 1920.
This song was taken from my spoof BBC radio documentary: 'BBC: The Beatles as Jehovah's Witnesses.' If you have enjoyed this song, then please give it a thumbs up and watch this spoof BBC radio documentary and please give that a thumbs up as well.
This song was written to educate the public about the Watchtower cult. I appeal to the US Fair Use Act of 1976 (code 17). The US Supreme Court has ruled in the "2 Live Crew" case, from 1994, that one does not have to obtain copyright in order to create a parody.
love it bob, well done.
