sunday's on the way
Singer: caesar, shirley
the demons were planning on having a party one night
they had some whiskey and beer and pretzels
a little red wine
some wine
they were celebrating how they crucified jesus on the tree
but uh satan the snake itself was feeling ill at ease
well
he took his crooked and dialed the phone by his head
and he called a faithful friend
the grave
to see for sure if christ was dead
hey grave
satan said
tell me
did my plan fail
the grave just laughed and said
don't worry
jesus is dead as man
on friday night they crucified the lord at calvary
but he said don't dread
in three days i'm gonna live again
you'll see
when problems try to bury you and make it hard to pray
it may seem like friday night
but sunday's on the way
a tranquilizer and a horror flick didn't calm satan's fear
so saturday night he called up ol' grave scared of what he'd hear
hey grave
what's going on
grave said
man
you call me twice
now i'll tell you for the last time
boss
jesus is on ice
listen
then satan said
remember when lazarus was in the grave
everything was cool then four days later lazarus was raised
now
this jesus is much more trouble than anyone has ever been to me
he's got me shook 'cause i heard him say he'll only be dead three days
on friday night they took the jesus to calvary
but he said don't dread
in three days i'm gonna live again
you'll see
when problems try to bury you and make it hard to pray
it may seem like friday night
sunday's on the way
i'll see you
listen
sunday morning satan woke up with a jump ready to blow a fuse
he was shaking from the tips of his pointed ears down to the toes of his pointed shoes
hey grave
tell me
is he alive
i don't wanna lose my neck
the grave said
your evilness
maintain your cool
man. you're a wreck
now
the grave said
now cool your jets big d
my sting is still intact
you see
jesus is dead forever
man
and he ain't gonna never coming back
listen
so you just mellow out and drink up or shoot up
leave me alone
and you know what
i'm gonna catch you later
later
oh wait
wait
wait
oh no
oh no
oh no
somebody's messing with the stone
the stone was pushed away and it bounced a time or two
and an angel stepped inside and said
i'm gabriel
