Someone mistakenly put a 2Pac song in a Christmas hymnal
Remember that scene out of The Simpsons where Bart Simpson changes one of the hymns to Iron Butterfly's hard rock classic "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" and the whole church sung along to it?
Well, it's happened for real apparently, but during a Christmas carols event called "Joy To The World" in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
It appears the lyrics to 2Pac's song "Hail Mary," which shares the name with a Catholic prayer, was mistakenly printed in a booklet handed out to carolers on Dec. 11.
Pictures of the pages with the lyrics have since spread on social media. Andrew Choksy said he took the original photos at the event and shared them with his friends on WhatsApp.
"A lot of people around us were in shock as to whether it was a joke or someone would actually rap the song! A few of the older ladies in front of us could not stop looking at the printed booklet," he confirmed to Mashable via Messenger.
If you were hoping the congregation would've made some attempt to bust out some of the rapper's lyrics, but unfortunately it didn't happen. The original lyrics from the 2Pac song would've probably given someone a conniption.
"I ain't a killer but don't push me Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to getting pussy Picture paragraphs unloaded, wise words being quoted Peeped the weakness in the rap game and sewed it Bow down, pray to God hoping that he's listening Seeing niggas coming for me, to my diamonds, when they glistening Now pay attention, rest in peace father I'm a ghost in these killing fields"
Merry Christmas from Tupac Shakur. He lives!
