Adam Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I realize I may be taking a risk posting these guys here. But it's worth it. They call themselves "That Christian Parody Band". Their music is entirely comprised of popular secular (non-Christian) songs, re-done with Christian lyrics. I love 'em. www.apologetix.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Good stuff, Adam. Bethlehemian Rhapsody Is this a real guy? Is he just fantasy? 'Cause of his grand size, no one's safe from fatality Open your eyes, look up at Goliath, and see: GOLIATH I’m dressed for war, boys. I need no infantry Because I'll meet the one you propose Israelites, pick my foe Anyway, I'll win, so it doesn’t really matter to me DAVID Mama, there's still no man who can come against this threat You might figure now we're dead Mama, Goliath is testing us And know he's gonna know they’re all afraid Mama, ooh ooh ooh, he's a mean and crazy guy He'll come right back again this time tomorrow Scaring us, scaring us -- cause he wants to meet in battle Hooray! My time has come Been a shepherd all my life -- but I'm taking on this giant Goodbye, everybody -- but not for long God will lead me all the while I face this brute C'mon! Ooh ooh ooh! (David you’re a wimp though) I'm not gonna die The One who wins my battles is Lord of all GOLIATH I see a little silly shepherd — not a man What are you tryin' to prove? You’ll be chewed up and mangled! Send a boy to fight me? Very, very tiny flea! DAVID Gol-la-liath! Gol-la-liath! Gonna die you big galoot! I'll kick your butt! I trust the Lord but nobody trusts me CROWD He trusts the Lord, but suffers from insanity Daring to fight 'gainst this monstrosity DAVID Evil comes, evil goes -- You will get deposed GOLIATH I will not, no! I will not get deposed DAVID Yes, you will (Repeat) Your head will roll GOLIATH No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Come-to-me-a! Come-to-me-a! Let the eagles pick your bones Beelzebub and his devils gonna fight for me for me for me DAVID So you think you can scorn me and spit at my tribe? So you think you’re above me just based on your size? Oh, baby ... you ain't just duelin' David You're gonna get it now -- cause God'll win my battle here CROWD Oh yeah! Oh yeah! Oh yeah! DAVID Guys I’m really flattered — yet it wasn’t me God wins every battle — God wins every battle for me VOICE David will be king soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 They could put together a helluva rock opera. Or have they already done that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Well, can't argue with the bands website... However, I will post the lyrics to the version I have. Just for posterity's sake. Typed by me, just now, reviewed by my son and I. Here ya go. With the Israelites, 1st Samuel 17 Saul and his men cried “No escape from the Philistines†Up came Goliath, a hundred feet high it seemed. (Goliath) “I’ll end this war boys, send one to fight with me, Cuz’ it’s any easy way, we can tell, I defy Israel. Anyone you wish boys, doesn’t really matter to me. To me…†Goliath, was quite a man, there where none who could compare, No one bigger anywhere. Goliath, was a champion, and everyone who saw him was afraid. No one… oo oo oo ooooooo, stood a chance against the guy. If he came back again this time tomorrow, forty one, forty one, Days that he’s come up for battle. Little David, said “I’m the one. Just a shepherd with a sling, but I step into the ring†“Good try little buddyâ€, King Saul replied, “But we need someone real big to face this brute.†“Come on!†oooo oooo ooo ooooooo He said to King Saul. “I ain’t gonna die, this uncircumcised Philistines gonna fall†(Goliath) “I see a little bitty shepherd not a man. Are you fools? Are you fools? You’re just fueling my anger! Am I just a dog? You come at me with rocks and sticks!†Gol-la-liath Gol-la-liath Gol-la-liath Gol-la-liath Gol-la-liath Here we go with sticks and stoo oo oones (David) “I trust the Lord, but nobody trusts me†He trusts the Lord but spends his time tending sheep, Facing a giant with a stone and a sling. (David) “Evil man, you must go. God will strike you down!†(Goliath) “He will not, no! He will not strike me down!†(David) “Yes He willlllllll!†(Goliath)â€He will not. Will not strike me down!†(David) “Yes He will!†(Goliath)â€He will not. Will not strike me down!†(David) “Yes He will!†(Goliath)â€Will not strike me down!†(David) “Yes He will!†(Goliath)â€Will not strike me down!†(David) “Yes He will!†(David) “You’ve had it!†no, no, no, no, no, no, no (Goliath) “Come-a here, come-a here, come-a here little boy. I’ll give your flesh to the birds of the sky to eat. To eat, to eaaatt, to eaaaaaaaat!†(David) “So you think you can mock the invisible God? So you think you’re just fighting a sling and a shot?†Ooooo baby, you ain’t just fighting David, You’re fighting God, and He’ll knock you right oughta here. Go Dave! Go Dave! Go Dave! Ooo ooo ooo. (David)â€Doesn’t really matter, what your size might be. God will fight my battles. God will win my battles, for meeeee†David will be King soon.
