Downer of a Sister

This is (fixed version of) "Downer of A Sister" by Apologetix. It is a parody of "Chop Suey" by System of a Down. This track is from their Adam Up cd.

Ps - If anyone starts to bash Christian music or this band for what they do, or start bashing anyone for any reason, I shall remove your comment and you shall be blocked. So don't even bother.

Wake up (wake up); we probably should talk a little, Jacob
Why? Because there's been a major shake up (there's been a major shake up)
Light the lamp they keep up on the table
Yeah, you married me instead of Rachel
You want me to
Wear a veil and never put the shades up?
You want me to
Try to starve and find a way to shape up?
You want me to
Drive to Egypt get myself a facial?
You want me to?

Oh, I don't think you trust in my
Shelf-life as your new bride
I tried, but Rachel's the perfect
Size!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoo.
Wake up (wake up), Laban, you're in trouble this is Jacob
Open up the door or it'll break up (open up the door or it'll break up)
Why'd you give me Leah 'stead of Rachel
Yeah, you know she ain't no Charlie's Angel
(You wanted to)
Even if she puts on lots of make-up
(Put fun into)
Leah's face could scare away your hiccups
(My honeymoon)
I've seen better faces on a bagel
(I'll punish you)

Why don't we discuss this nice?
Downsize your foolish pride
Why fight? I gave you the first in line
And I threw in a concubine
All right, for Rachel just serve me twice

Father! (Father!) Father! (Father!) Father! (Father!) Father! (Father!)
Father it's too intense; I can't stand to hear it
Father you knew the plan. Why
did you give Jacob me?
In disguise so secretly? Is there no escape for me?
It's my heart you're breaking, please no!
Brushed aside. Now I'm just doin' time
I cry, while Jacob diversifies
Can't lie—she's such a cutie pie
Why try? When Rachel's the perfect bride?

Chop Suey! is my favorite song, so it is good to have a christian version of the real thing. (even though it isnt as good!)

[Indifferent2YourPain]

I'll be the first to admit that the actual instrumental part isn't as good and the lyrics don't seem to flow as much as original songs do, but they have a limited range, lol.

[Indifferent2YourPain]

By range, I mean of lyrics topics.

There is an ApologetiX concert near me soon...But nooooo. I'm not going. Why you ask? Cuz I have a lock in at church. And well, Pastors kids don't get to skip those. Even for a christian concert! Time to beg!!!!!!!!!!!!! **but the answer will still be no**

[MrLabcat]

Pretty bad. Too much autotune. Oh, and it sucks.

@GeminiisEmma I'll punish you!

[Bladecrossexe]

@Indifferent2YourPain Well, the bible din't say Leah was butt ugly like teh song is saying, they just said that Rachel was better looking. From every translation I'VE read anyway.

[Masterlau3]

The end is wonderfull. Nice cover (surprisingly)

Well, the SOAD version might not be a christian song, but what I AM saying is that it is NOT anti-christian. That's all.

[Rawk4Life]

You are incorrect sir. Jesus did not commit suicide, that would involve literally killing Himself. Chop Suey is not a Christian song, so anything that may pertain to Jesus is purely coincedental. Serj is Mormon I believe, not the same thing as a Christian.

[countofcounts]

I'll be honest about this song. The lyrics are very well written (and funny). But the actual singing and instrument playing is bad.

@rkoutnik1337

No problem!

I just don't like it when people start hating on System of a Down because they THINK they are bad. SOAD is my favorite band!

Makes quite a bit of sense.  Thanks for explaining.
