Artist: Apologetix Song: Try Micah (Parody of "Drive My Car" performed by the Beatles ) CD: The 12 Downloads at Christmas Genre: Christmas Label:Parodudes Records Homepage
Lyrics:
Asked King Herod where Messiah could be
He said, "Baby, don't ask me!"
We said, "We've been chasing a star in the East
But we could use some directions, please!"
Maybe, you can try Micah
Yes, I know you've seen a star
Baby, you can try Micah
It may be in 5:2
Been told before 'bout the prophetic books
So we said, maybe we'll take a look
Searchin' for Jesus is hard to attempt
But Micah shows He's in Bethlehem
Maybe, we can try Micah
Since we're following a star
Baby, we can try Micah
He says it's in 5:2
Lead me to Jesus, yeah!
Balaam saw it from afar
Said there's gonna be a star
Numbers chapter 24
And now back to Matthew
We found the Lord there just like Micah said
But since it's Christmas, baby
We got stuff that we gave
We brought some gold, frankincense and some myrrh
'Cause we found Messiah and that's for sure
Baby, you can try Micah
If you're following a star
Baby, you can try Micah
And tell 'em who sent you
We be the three kings, yeah!
We be the three kings, yeah!
We be the three kings, yeah!
Matthew 2:5-6
"In Bethlehem in Judea," they replied, "for this is what the prophet has written: 'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.'
Artist: Apologetix Song: Tip From An Angel (Parody of "Lips of an Angel" performed by Hinder) CD: The 12 Downloads at Christmas Genre: Christmas Label:Parodudes Records Homepage
Lyrics:
Sorry that I'm comin' here so late
I'm tryin' to watch my flock right now
I heard a baby cryin' -- is that Him in the hay?
I'll try to whisper but my lambs bleat so loud
Well, my herd's in the next room
Most times I'm with sheep, what's new?
I guess we never really move alone
It's really good to be here, Lord
Seeing Your face -- it sounds so weird
But I got a tip from an angel
He knew those words would take me here
And I never thought I'd be surprised
But, Lord, You made a trough be Your cradle
In the midst of a stable
There's not a bunch in common between You and I
And yet You shepherd sheep, too
You gotta know your flock or soon they wander out of sight
No, I don't think sheep have a clue
Well, my herd's in the next room
Sometimes I wish sheep were mute
I guess we'd better get a move on
It's really good to be here Lord
Glad that I came -- it sounds so weird
But I got a tip from an angel
He knew those words would take me here
And I never thought I'd see the Christ
But Lord, You came -- it's not some big fable
In the midst of a stable
It's really good to be here, Lord
Glad that I came -- it sounds so weird
But I got a tip from an angel
He knew those words would take me here
And I never thought I'd be surprised
But Lord You made a trough be Your cradle
In the midst of a stable
And I never thought I'd see, You, Christ
But Lord, You came -- it\'s not some big fable
In the midst of a stable
Sorry that I'm comin' here so late
Luke 2:10
But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.
Artist: Apologetix Song: Manger (Parody of "Angel" performed by Shaggy (featuring Rayvon) CD: The 12 Downloads at Christmas Genre: Christmas Label:Parodudes Records Homepage
Lyrics:
Girl, use my manger for your darling angel
Cozier than my sheep you ought to be, Mary
Showed you my stable -- for my farming animals
Girl, you must spend the night with these, maybe
Life is one big party when there's children
But whose gonna have a bed for your small son?
It's all good that you're little one's near but
Can't find a room -- crud! Water broke and now what?
You can rush out to the place I mentioned
Spend the night save the money for the rent and
Keep him there through your entire vacation
You won't need reservations -- my barn\'s pretty vacant
Girl, use my manger for your darling baby
Over where Bo Peep would want to be, Mary
Sure, use my stable -- it's a charming place and
Girl you'll make friends with cows and sheep, maybe
Sure it's clean and that's how you should be treated
Though you'd better get another one in Egypt
Ruler of Bethlehem is conceited
Take it from me kid: if he comes, beat it!
But he's not gonna come tonight; there's no problem
Not till talkin' to some wise men; Herod's so dumb
But the free room that I have for you is ho hum
He could search for so long and still never see your son
Girl, use my manger for your darling baby
Clothe Him with white sheets or else he'll freeze, Mary
Showed you my stable -- what are all these angels?
Girl, I might end up on my knees, maybe
Girl, there's probably gonna be a crowd
So let me see your child -- He must be sent from up above
And He appears to be so tender and so nice and friendly
I think He's givin' me a hug
Girl, there's probably gonna be a crowd
So let me see your child -- He must be sent from up above
And He appears to be so tender and so like the shepherds
I'm thankin' Heaven He has come
Tonight it's one big party 'cause it's God's son
But you'd better watch your back when it's all done
It's all good that your little one's here but
Can't be a fool, hon -- what about the law, mon?
You can call on divine intervention
But shiny light gives you very much attention
It could lead to my incarceration
I wanna tell the nations, but I think I’ll wait some
REPEAT SECOND CHORUS, THIRD CHORUS
Luke 2:7
and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Artist: Apologetix Song: Christmasnite (Parody of "Kryptonite" performed by Three Doors Down) CD: The 12 Downloads at Christmas Genre: christmas Label:Parodudes Records Homepage
Lyrics:
I took a walk around the world to see Your promised sign
I left my buddies laughin' somewhere in the sand behind
I watch the world glow to the dark light of the moon
I see another light in view
I walk the world but to a star's light not the moon
After all I knew it had to be something to do with You
I really don't mind not havin' my old friends
As long as You'll meet me in Bethlehem
If I'm a crazy man, well, You still called me through the sand
If I'm a wise man, well, then You prepared the gold in my hand
I'll keep Your light in sight, with my search for You, it\'s like
Christmas night
You called me strongly from the East
But still, Lord Jesus, I\'m no king
You took this planet by surprise whenever You came down
You stunned all them in Bethlehem
I caught Your beacon to these men I picked it up and took my map and started out
CHORUS
Matthew 2:1
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem ...

Greg X. Volz (the 'X' is for Xavier) is best known as the lead vocalist for the legendary rock band Petra during their golden years (1977-1986). An incredible rock singer with a 4-octave range, Greg Volz was offered the role of lead vocalist for REO Speedwagon in the 70s, but decided instead to join Petra.
He spent most of the following decade using his vocal talents to give Petra their signature, arena-rock sound, performing an average of 160 concerts per year.
