| How you doin' out there?
|
| You ever seem to have one of those days
|
| When it just seems like everybody’s rippin' on your faith
|
| From your teacher all the way down to your ex-girlfriend?
|
| Well, you know, I used to have them just about all the time
|
| But I found a way to get out of it
|
| Let me tell you 'bout it
|
| Sittin' in the classroom, my thinkin' hits a snag
|
| There’s some things they teach us that just ain’t the facts
|
| The school tells us things I know that aren’t true
|
| I’m gonna read the Book that they don’t want me to
|
| Openin' the Lord’s Book
|
| Soakin' in the Lord’s Book
|
| Now, teacher, don’t ya kill me for bustin' the rules
|
| 'Cause everybody knows that
|
| Book it ain’t allowed in school
|
| The experts down the hall make the school board’s choices clear:
|
| Books on the occult, though there ain’t no Bibles here
|
| If I study things with Peter and Paul
|
| To get caught with them would be the death of us all
|
| Openin' the Lord’s Book, yeah-eh!
|
| Soakin' in the Lord’s Book
|
| Now, teacher don’t ya kill me for bustin' the rules
|
| 'Cause everybody knows that
|
| Book it ain’t allowed in school
|
| Alriiiiight!
|
| Well, the Book says His Word is a two-edged sword
|
| Check out that there’s an all-out war
|
| Believers then took it to read underground
|
| 2000 years later — you know where I’ll be found
|
| Openin' the Lord’s Book, yes indeed, I’ll be
|
| Soakin' in the Lord’s Book
|
| Now, teacher don’t ya kill me for bustin' your rules
|
| 'Cause everybody knows that
|
| Book it ain’t allowed in school
|
| One more!
|
| Openin' the Lord’s Book, uh-oh!
|
| Soakin' in the Lord’s Book
|
| Now, teacher, Isaiah 40 verse 8 is the truth
|
| But everybody knows that
|
| Book it ain’t allowed in school |
