"Bible Geek" - Eddy Lawrence

Songwriter Eddy Lawrence performing an off-the-cuff camcorder version of a song from his upcoming album, "Heaven's Not My Home".

The Bible Geek

Hurricanes and thunder
Miracles and wonders
Bushes burning in the sand
Heavenly conceptions
Immaculate deceptions
Jesus walking like a man
I've heard some people pleading
They don't like bible reading
It makes their eyes grow heavy lids
But you won't find me snoring
'Cause I don't think its boring
The bible is some crazy shit

Famine and destruction
Incest and seduction
Fattened lambs to sacrifice
Fratricidal slaughter
Blood that flows like water
Lordy, ain't the good book nice
Temperamental tyrants
Midgets slaying giants
Children thrown to lion pits
Pestilence, diseases
God does just as he pleases
The bible is some crazy shit

The fears and aspirations
Of every single nation
From creation 'til the end of time
For 1300 pages
The fear and fury rages
But in the end, for some
It works out fine

Redactions and omissions
Harmonized positions
Contradictions syncretized
If you thinking it's confusin'
That's not just an illusion
No, that's exactly by design

So if you're looking for reliable truth
Forget the bible
You will quickly find the facts don't fit
Some might find it grating
But to me it's fascinating
Yeah, the bible is some crazy shit

I encourage you to read it
If you do, you won't believe it

'Cause the bible is really kinda crazy
The bible isn't merely for the weary, weak, and lazy
The bible, hey you are liable
If you read it to just never wanna quit

'Cause the bible is some crazy shit

OK, Mr tufguy, we'll put that on our request list. We're making more videos that we'll have up soon. I'm still figuring out how to use my bum finger, so it's an adventure. Thanks for watching.
