Lyrics

You were lookin’ ‘bout as down as a demon on his birthday
Wishin’ he was never borned
You were sneakin’ around like a moss that creeps up a stone stairway,
You looked about as tattered as a sail on a ship in a six week storm
And, yet you say you want another chance
You say you want to be restored
But, still you’re wearing your pentagrams
And fingerin’ with your ouija board
You were lookin’ ‘bout as sly as a rapist in the shadows
Waiting to entertain some angel unaware
You had that look in your eyes like a coldness that a rat knows
When he’s caught, and he rots in a gutter with his food in a snare
And, yet you say you want another way
Or is it that you’re just gettin’ bored?
Are you tired of playin’ round all the games you play
But l, don’t play around with the Lord!
Don’t you know you can’t break that devil’s back
By steppin’ on sidewalk cracks?
You can’t buy salvation at the 5 and 10
You can’t get away from Satan in a hot corvette
You can’t climb to Heaven in a private jet
You gotta kick the devil out and let the Savior in
You can’t go dancin’ in your daddy’s suit
You can’t go mountain climbin’ in your go-go boots
You can’t walk a tight rope in water ski’s
And, anything you ever want to do in this life,
Well, first of all you’ve got to get the keys!
And, if you want to skydive, you’ll need a parachute
Don’t you know you can’t have your cookies, babe, and eat ‘em, too?
And, if you want to play piano, gotta learn how to hit the keys
And, if you want to learn how to live your life right, well, the first place to
Get is on your knees!
