Cousin Zephaniah (Parody of "Cuts Like a Knife")
guitar chords lyrics
I've been doin' some readin'
A book I'm sure we haven't all searched out
Habakkuk's book precedes it
Haggai's come after -- what a crowd -- yeah
Well, I heard his prophecies
I heard they might have crowned someone he knew -- yeah
Well, who is he, baby?
Who is he? I'll tell you what you need to do - ooh yeah
Look at all the prophets and find the guy we know
Could be descended from the throne
Well, he's called Zephaniah
Of the Israelites
Yeah, he's not Zechariah
But he's real close by
The times he lived were changin'
Yeah, he's not Zechariah
But he's real close by
The times he lived were changin'
Josiah was a king who'd done some good - ooh yeah
But paganism started
Inchin' in with sin as best it could - ooh, it could
It wouldn't be the first the time a king had gone astray
But he threw them gods away
Probably 'cause Zephaniah
Yeah, got to King Josiah
Oh, and also Jeremiah
Yeah, probably both guys
Na na na - na na na na na na na
Oh, the prophet Zephaniah
Got to King Josiah, baby
Oh, the prophet Zephaniah
Yeah
LEAD
He's the great, great grandson
Of Hezekiah, you know
A good king long ago
So he's cousin Zephaniah
Yeah, to the king, Josiah
So he's cousin Zephaniah
Yeah, to the king, Josiah
Yeah!
Na na na - na na na na na na na
Oh, he's cousin Zephaniah
Na na na - na na na na na na na
Oh, my, my
Of the Israelites, baby
Na na na - na na na na na na na
Ohhhhhh, yeah
He's cousin Zephaniah
Just him and Jeremiah
Na na na - na na na na na na na
Yeah, yeah
C'mon, boys -- ohhh!
