Lazarus Dies Again Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rise up Lazarus, get out of that grave
Rise and shine Lazarus, clean up and get a shave
Martha is weeping, she's been gnashing her teeth
Can't you hear her wailing, rise up and stop her grief

[Verse 2]
Oh the dogs are sniffing, the children are scared
Now, Martha is laughing "brother you've been spared"
She's cooking a goat, calling all of her friends
Oh rise up Lazarus and live again (again, again)

[Chorus]
Rise up, rise up

[Verse 3]
He's a local celebrity they all buy him drinks
He's an authority on death they ask him what he thinks
Oh did you see my mother there?
Or see a great white light?
Did you fight with the devil on that eternal night?

[Verse 4]
He goes on a lecture circuit
Hosts his own T.V. show
Has his pick of beautiful women wherever he goes
He advises politicians, he dines with kings
Gets a record deal and he starts to sing (and sing, and sing)

[Chorus]
Rise up, rise up (Rise up)
Rise up, rise up
Rise up Lazarus

[Verse 5]
Then Jesus gets in trouble and he goes to trial
Lazarus he gets wind and lays low for a while
The network pulls the plug, the record deal heads south
He hides out in the cave behind Martha's house

[Verse 6]
And they weep, they cry and they moan for their friend
All the lies the injustice and how he meets his end
Yeah they cry for a while then he starts to grin
"My God Martha, he's gonna rise again (again, again)

[Chorus]
Rise up, rise up
Rise up, rise up

[Verse 7]
After the burial they just move away
Get an apartment in Cairo and live out their days
He works on chariots and keeps his secret well hid
And never ever talks about what Jesus did
And the years roll along, they both get on the pension

[Verse 8]
And he often sits and thinks of his former attention
And on the night he lay dying he calls out to his friend
"Oh Jesus can you hear me?"
Then Lazarus dies again

[Outro]
Rise up
Rise up, rise up
Rise up, rise up
