Megan Phelps-Roper of the Westboro Baptist Church is back attacking Lady Gaga for her music and the message she’s sending out to impressionable people who make the mistake of buying her albums. After doing a parody of “Poker Face,” Roper took “Telephone” and turned it into “Ever Burn,” a song that is supposed to tell Gaga, the Spawn of the Devil, that she must banish all hope of being saved, Billboard informs.

The parody song, released on Roper’s Tumblr page, is meant to show Gaga that her depraved ways and her repeated attempts at seducing young people from all over the world and luring them over to the dark side have not gone by unnoticed. God is no longer picking up the phone when – if! – Gaga calls, so there, Roper says in the song. Her wicked ways have ensured a safe passage to hell for the singer, so she might as well deal with the idea that she will, as the title of the song also says, “for ever burn.”

“The Westboro Baptist Church’s Megan Phelps-Roper is targeting Lady Gaga with another song parody, this time with an incendiary version of ‘Telephone’ called ‘Ever Burn’ that says the pop star is destined for hell. On ‘Ever Burn,’ Phelps-Roper – granddaughter of the Westboro Baptist Church’s Reverend Fred Phelps – flips the chorus of ‘Telephone’ to insult Gaga. ‘Stop praying, stop praying, God will not hear you anymore/ You taught the boys and the girls to be proud [expletive]s,’ she sings over an instrumental version of track,” Billboard informs.

“‘Go devil spawn, you just keep pushin’ on to the hell where you will forever burn,’ she continues. This is the Westboro Baptist church's second time parodying Lady Gaga this year. Back in January, the Kansas congregation announced plans to stage a ‘God Hates Lady Gaga’ protest at the singer’s concert in St. Louis, Mo., but instead released a version of ‘Poker Face’ with lyrics like, ‘Show your filth to everybody’ and, ‘You [expletive] off God, you’ll see what he’s got’,” the music e-zine further says.

Oddly enough, as several Gaga fans and not only have also pointed out the first time Roper came out with a parody song, while the members of this Church, with Rope included, seem to believe Gaga’s music and lyrics will damn her to hell, they see nothing wrong with the kind of foul language they use themselves. Below is the “Telephone” parody, “Ever Burn.” *Be advised that it contains offensive lyrics.

I am a christian and I truly believe that these videos you made to mock and insult Lady Gaga only make you look like a hypocritical fool, in the end. Yes, God surely does not approve of the messages that have been sent and the ideas that have been promoted by this young woman, but that does not mean He hates her. Just as He does not hate those of this world who have problems with homosexuality or any other type of lust or sin. He only hates the sins they commit not the person who commits these sins. God hates evil, but He does not hate people and He forgives all who desire to be forgiven and saved. What you did in the end was insult and mock God Himself by sending false messages to the world of our wonderful God who, though He punishes, also forgigives, heals, and love. Our God is a God of love, not hate! So how dare you lie to this world by changing the words of God to be something else that is not true or righteous. Remember:"Two wrongs don't make a right," and also turn the other cheek as Jesus demonstrated by dying on the cross for all of us and you need to realize that is not what Jesus would do. He would show her love and compassion and forgiveness and He does hear her prayers and He loves her as He loves the whole world. God is not willing that any should perish. He desires to see all His children in heaven on that day. And that is all I have to say. Have a nice day.
