Parody Lyrics by Randall Hyde

To Bethany they're going, four days late
Laz'rus, he was having him a snooze
Was unhappy, Martha's sad
Oh, her brother's in the grave
Buried him indeed
And he's been there for a while
It grieved His heart, see Jesus crying now
Used it as a message
To all the Jews
Come now Mary, no he didn't die

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh, Lazarus was real sick
Oh, oh, oh, Lazarus was real sick
Oh, oh, oh, Lazarus was real sick
Now he's fine

Well you know, he's now better
He arose today
Jesus said "Arise, Father I pray"
Make it snappy
We've got plans
"Oh, and won't you roll that stone away"
Martha says "We'll go P-U,
For by now he surely reeks
He's been buried now all of four days"
Faith's not good, so she'd whine
Then Jesus, said "Lazarus this way!"

(chorus)

After four days He'd deliver
All their hassles went bye-bye
Lazarus is showing vigor
And God's glory he expounds
Because he didn't die

(chorus repeat and fade)
