The Man They Call Zechariah
Parody of "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf
(Zechariah 1:7, 3:8-9, 6:12-13, 9:9, 12:10, 14:4; Jeremiah 23:5-6, 33:15-16; Isaiah 4:2-4, Ezekiel 17:22-24)
I like to dream, yes, yes
When I'm not even sound asleep
Got astoundin' soundin' visions one night
And it made me prophesy
So bizarre, quite clear
You can start to read them here
Well, you don't know but, uh, seek and find
Why don't you come with me to the world
Of the man they call Zechariah
You don't know, but we can read
520 years B.C.
That's when He gave this to me
Zechariah's book describes the
Last days of the human race
That's not all; there's a man named Branch
They're gonna pierce through and betray
He was a king, rode a donkey
He'll come one day and take our sins away
The ground shook - all around
Because He landed on that mount
Well, you don't know but, uh, seek and find
Why don't you come with me to the world
Of the man they call Zechariah
Well, you don't know, but we can read
My words foretell a priest and king
That you'll see make history
Zechariah knows Messiah
Let the Son take you away
You don't know but, uh, seek and find
Why don't you come with me to the world
Of the man they call Zechariah
Well, you don't know, but we can read
520 years B.C.
That's when He gave this to me
