Temptation Boogie

I woke up Monday morning

with my head all full of nothin'

I went down to McDonald's

to get me an Egg McMuffin



Still asleep yet wide awake

around seven twenty - three,

when this loudmouth pushy businessman

cut in front of me



My eyes went cold, I clinched my fist,

I wanted to thump him good,

but then the spirit stopped me

when I saw how it stood



The holy ghost reminded me

I represent the Lord,

and it would be hard to witness to him

stretched out on the floor



CHORUS:

Some people say "let it out"

Some people say "hold it in"

But Jesus says to crucify it

for that thing there is sin,

and I was fighting with temptation

I was dueling with that thing

Bondage and struggle

is all that it will bring

Well, what's a soul to do

when it's face to face with sin?

He oughta pray not once but twice

put on the Mind of Christ

and get that sweet ol' victory again



Well, I grabbed my superman beach towel

QT Tanning lotion

I thought I'd take a cruise

and catch some rays down by the ocean



I had it all planned out

to roast some burgers and some wienies

But, when I arrived everything but the telephone poles

was dressed up in bikinis



I knew that there must be a way to please the Lord and still get tan

But I felt so stupid with my big ol' head stuck in the sand



CHORUS



You gotta pray for that victory again
