Paroles
[Verse 1]
I can see a swath of sinners settin' yonder
And they're actin' like a pack of fools
Gazin' into space letting their minds wander
Stead of studying the good Lord's rules
You better pay attention, build your comprehension
There's gonna be a quiz at your ascension
Not to mention any threat of hell
But if you're smart you'll learn your lessons well
[Verse 2]
Every bright description of the promised land mentions
You can reach it if you keep alert
Learning every line and every last commandment
May not help you but it couldn't hurt
First ya gotta read 'em then ya gotta heed 'em
Ya never know when you're gonna need 'em
Just as old Elijah said to Jezebel
You better start to learn your lessons well
[Verse 3]
The lamb of the body
Is the eye
If your eye
Hears bad
Your whole body will be darkness
And if darkness is all around
Your soul
Will be oddly untried
But if your eye is sound
Your whole body will be filled with light
Your whole body will be filled with light
Your whole body will be filled with light
[Verse 4]
I can see a swath of sinners settin' yonder
And they're actin' like a pack of fools
Gazin' into space letting their minds wander
Stead of studying the good Lord's rules
You better pay attention, build your comprehension
There's gonna be a quiz at your ascension
Not to mention any threat of hell
Not to mention any threat of hell
But if you're smart you'll learn your lessons well
You better start to learn your lessons well
Yeah
You better start to learn your lessons well
Yeah, yeah
