Once I read a book | |
And this is what it said | |
If your music has a beat | |
Then you're gonna wind up dead | |
It doesn't really matter if | |
it's Christian or not | |
If it's syncopated rhythm | |
then your soul is gonna rot | |
And this book was called | |
'Ha! You're Gonna Burn' | |
And in the second chapter | |
I went on to learn | |
Take two houseplants | |
And put them to the test | |
Set them both in front of speakers | |
And let the music do the rest | |
The first one you play Mozart | |
Or something lovely like that | |
The second one you play that Petra | |
Or that MegaDeth | |
Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. | |
So I took my two houseplants | |
And I put them to the test | |
Set them both in front of speakers | |
To let the music do the rest | |
I powered up my Pioneers | |
To let the music roar | |
But twenty minutes later | |
Someone's knocking at my door | |
I opened up my door | |
And there my neighbor stood | |
He said, 'Man I'd like to get some sleep | |
If you think I could' | |
I said, 'Man, can't you see here | |
I've got this moral dilemma that | |
I got to get clear.' | |
He said, 'What kind of moral dilemma | |
Could you have at this time of night | |
That could make me so angry | |
That I just want to fight.' | |
So I pointed to the page | |
In that open book | |
That had a picture of a potted plant | |
And I said, 'Go have a look.' | |
And he read | |
Take two houseplants | |
And put them to the test | |
Set them both in front of speakers | |
And let the music do the rest | |
The first one you play Mozart | |
Or something lovely like that | |
The second one you play that Petra | |
Or that MegaDeth. | |
Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. | |
First of all he said, | |
'That's Wagner that you're playing | |
I've never heard of Petra | |
And isn't Megadeth all dead.' | |
And secondly, emphatically, | |
He asked me, 'What's the sense | |
of hanging out with houseplants | |
when, hey, I live right across the fence.' | |
And I thought to myself | |
You know, that's a good point | |
So I took my two houseplants, | |
and I put them both back outside | |
And me and my neighbor | |
Well, we went out for a drive | |
We talked about all the things | |
That really matter most | |
Like life and love and happiness | |
And then the Holy Ghost | |
And now my two houseplants | |
They sit out in the sun | |
As for me and my neighbor | |
Well our friendship has become | |
A meaningful relationship | |
That's headed straight to heaven | |
But as for now | |
We like to sit around and listen | |
to Audio Adrenaline | |
Cranked to eleven. |
