Parody of "In the Meantime" by Spacehog
(1 Samuel 25:1-42)
Do do do do do do oo do
Do do do do do do oo do
Do do do do do do oo do
Do oo do dooooooooooo
And in First Samuel chapter 25
We met a wealthy guy
Who had a farm with miles of sheep
And Abigail his wife was quite a doll
And real attractive
But Nabal was a mean guy, wait and see
He loved to argue all day through
'Cause men of greed despise the truth
And after all his name meant " fool"
He loved to argue
And when we inquired if he'd provide some food
To share with all the boys
For all that David's men had done
He said, "I never give my bread away
"Besides, you're on the run"
David said, "The mean guy done me wrong!"
He told the army what to do:
"I can't believe that guy refused!
"So draw your swords, 'cause his life's through!
"He wants to argue!"
Abigail his wife came and pleaded for his life
Said, my husband's a loser but that's homici-ide
No, David, wait - that's not O.K.
Ooh, David changed his mind, 10 days later Nabal died
Of a heart attack - and Abigail his wife
Became the king's bride
He loved to argue all day through
'Cause men of greed despise the truth
When all we wanted just was food
He loved to argue
He had it all and lost it, too
His land was green, his wife was cute
But overall, he just died a fool
Who loved to argue
He loved to argue all day through
Men of greed despise the truth
His life's through
But his life's through
But his life, but his life, his life's through
But his wife's cool
His wife's cool
But his wife, but his wife -- his wife's cool
1 Samuel 25:25a
"May my lord pay no attention to that wicked man Nabal. He is just like his
name - his name is Fool, and folly goes with him."
