lyrics

There’s a Bible Study every Sunday night
Every Wednesday night across the country
This has gone on for so long, you would think that people would ready

To give an answer
To give an answer

A girl I knew stopped to tie her shoe outside the Church upon the sidewalk
A seeker soul who only wanted to know, stopped as well and started to talk

Looking for an answer
Looking for an answer

“Why do wear a fish on your shirt?
Why do you meet on Sundays?
Why do you put a man up in a pulpit above everybody else?
And,
Why do you disagree with others who say that they believe just like you?”

Just like you
just like you
just like you

Pastor Randall likes to wear his sandal on the beach in Southern California
He sings a song that includes the word ‘God’,
But nervously looks over his shoulder

Is this an answer?
Is this an answer?!

“Why do wear a fish on your shirt?
Why do you meet on Sundays?
Why do you put a man upon a throne - above everybody else?
And,
Why do you disagree with others who say that they believe just like you?”
Just like you
just like you
just like you

Is this an answer?:

- Fish on your shirt.
- Sundays.
- Man on a throne.

Everybody else… just like you.

There’s a Bible Study every Sunday night
Every Wednesday night across the country

But it was upon his discovery of the Beatles that made Richard obsess over music, learning guitar, bass, piano & drums and writing boxes full of songs. ... more
