I've been doing some reading,
| 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 it, baby?
| Who s he? I'll tell you what you need to do, oh yeah!
| Look at all the prophets, find the kind we know
| Could be descended from the throne.
|
| Chorus:
| Now, he's cousin Zephaniah
| Of the Israelites
| Yeah, it's not Zechariah
| Oh, but he's real close by!
|
| The times we live are changing
| Josiah was a king who'd done some good, uh yeah!
| But paganism started, inchin' in with sin as best it could,
| Ohh, it could!
| It wouldn't be the first time a king had gone astray,
| But he threw them gods away!
|
| Chorus:
| From the cousin Zephaniah, yeha
| Got the king Josiah
| Oh, and also Jermiah
| Yeah, probably both guys!
| Oh, the prophet Zephaniah
| Got the king Josiah, baby!
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Oh, the prophet Zephaniah, yeah!
|
| He's the great, great,
| Great grandson of Hezekiah,
| You know!
| A good king long ago!
|
| So he's cousin Zephaniah
| Yeah, to the king Josiah
| Uh, it's cousin Zephaniah
| Yeah, to the king Josiah, yeah!
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Oh, cousin Zephaniah
| Oh, my, yeah!
| Of the Israelites, baby!
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Oh yeah!
| Cousin Zephaniah
| Just him and Jeremiah
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Yeah, yeah!
| Come on, boys!
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Cousin Zephaniah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
| Na, na, na, na, na, na
| Cousin Zephaniah, na, na!
| Of the Israelites,
| Of the Israelites, baby!
