Cornelius |
| And every generation’s got |
| The fearless few who can’t be bought |
| They don’t take polls or look around |
| They act on truth, and then they stand their ground |
| Come up and see the world stripped bare |
| The free indeed |
| They breathe a rarified air |
| Yeah, they got spirit |
| Yeah, they got game |
| And some get christened |
| With a righteous-sounding name |
| Cornelius |
| And every generation knows |
| The doers do, the posers pose |
| 'Cause every time the plop goes fizz |
| Another yes-man gets his |
| Come up and see the big man’s boss |
| The mind clears out when you’re taking up the cross |
| Yeah, his burden’s easy |
| No, it don’t chafe |
| It’s God’s safe harbor |
| Why play it safe? |
| Cornelius |
| Core-strong like a centurion |
| I wanna be Cornelius |
| Core-strong like a centurion |
| I wanna be Cornelius |
| His kneel is real |
| His kneel is real |
| What rhymes with Cornelius? |
| Helium |
| The cor is before a kneel, a kneel |
| The i is an e in us, in us He’s ready to fight but not to fuss |
| We like, we like Cornelius |
| And history proves the axiom |
| Surface skimmers choke on scum |
| Who’s calling deep? |
| Who opens wide? |
| Who put the just in justified? |
| Check, check it out — the view you get |
| It’s God’s high-wire |
| There isn’t any net |
| Show a little spirit |
| Show you got game |
| Show you know |
| We know, we know |
| You know what’s in a name |
| He’s ready to fight |
| But not to fuss |
| Cornelius |
| He isn’t a wuss |
| He never was |
| Cornelius |
