APOLOGETIX - Bethlehemian Rhapsody lyrics

rate me

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 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, he’s a mean and crazy guy

He’ll come back again this time tomorrow

Daring 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 (David you’re a whimp though) I’m not gonna die

The One who wins my battle is Lord over all

GOLIATH:

I see a little silly shepherd, not a man

What are you trying to prove? You’ll be chewed up and mangled!

Send a boy to fight me? A 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 ‘gaist 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 on my tribe?

So you think you’re above me just based on your size?

Oh, baby…. you ain’t just duelin’ David

You’e 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
