New Pharisees |
They go walking into church every Sunday morning |
They the self-appointed sin patrol |
Well they whisper and they gossip behind the back |
Of anybody that they can’t control |
See that girl in the choir she’s got evil desires |
She must be drinking from the devil’s well |
She’s a downright disgrace with that paint on her face |
She looks just like a Jezebel |
And they’re running around putting everybody down |
What are you trying to do? |
You need to pick up the Book and take another look |
'Cause brother I’ve got the news for you |
You know Jesus was sent with a new covenant |
And he even died for you |
New pharisees like a fatal disease |
Always flapping your jaws trying to live by the law |
You see that boy over there with that long shaggy hair |
Ought to be ashamed of his self |
He wearing hip-hop clothes got a ring in his nose |
Don’t he know he going straight to hell |
And then yesterday morning me and sister Johnson |
Were talkin' on the party line |
She said that Deacon Brown was having dinner downtown |
Somebody seen him with a glass of wine |
And you act so righteous and you look so pious |
You always pay your tithe |
But there’s a rock in your heart and a fire on your tongue |
And there ain’t no love in your eyes |
Bad news is begotten and the devil is smiling |
You gossip and you criticize |
New pharisees like a fatal disease |
Always flapping your jaws trying to live by the law |
Well you can’t get by the law so quit flapping your jaws |
New pharisees yes, you’re a lot like me |
