lyrics

Is he a man? Or is he a myth?
Some say he’s full of vinegar, some say he’s full of piss.
He comes out every night when the sun goes down.
He’s been seen at the watering holes in town.

Karaoke night! He’ll be there.
To sing is his thing - guaranteed you ain’t prepared!

Well, the Karaoke preacher he doesn’t need to look at the screen.
You’ve heard the song a hundred times and now you feel just what it means.

Oh, maybe it’s his voice, you simply got no choice.
Fall down on my knees and I rejoice!
Karaoke Preacher, you make my heaving bosom moist!

In the light of the dawn, he’s just an ordinary man.
but he shines like the light of a god when he takes the karaoke stand!
Walks right in, signs up, sits down.
People say he’s a stranger, no one’s seen him around.
He blends in to the crowd, just another drunk.
Ladies bat their eyes, lookin’ for their next hunk.

And the karaoke preacher he starts singin’ out to you.
You came here to get drunk and now
You’re getting some love and salvation, too.

Oh, it ain’t the kind, ooo, you usually find…
He’s up on that stage and you can’t rewind!
Karaoke Preacher, you’ve been on my mind.
You’ve been on my mind, yes!

Then he disappears just as soon as he came.
Your friend was in the bathroom,
Missed the whole thing, what a shame.

Wipes away all trace of sin with his sermon and he’s gone.
He heals so much pain with that one song.
3:19 long.
He sings it out and he sings it strong.

Karaoke Preacher – you’re doin’ this to me!
Your voice and your words,
They seem to set me free!
Oh, ain’t a religious man.
Lord, I’ve made my stand.
I’m all for separation of church and state,
But Karaoke is a country and you’re president of this land!

Refrain:

He drops a bomb with song, and he’s gone, long gone.
He drops a Karaoke bomb with a song and he’s gone.

Karaoke Preacher please!
I’m down on my knees.

Come on Preacher! Jump right in.
If this is a Karaoke contest, you win!

Bomb, song, gone x3
Gone, gone, gone
He drops a bomb.
Karaoke Preacher!
