Change Up

Smaller, smaller, what they holler

Shorter, shorter, all in order

Wordy, wordy, much too nerdy

Chop them, chop them, make them purdy

Lessen, lessen the offenses

Feel good, feel good, more pretenses

Laughter, laughter, always joking

Making fun and always poking

Sadness, sadness, not in order

Grieving over sins on border

Repent, repent, not discussing

Feelings, feelings, o’er them fussing

Jesus, Jesus, twisted image

Turn the tables, keep them glistening

Non offensive, what’s in order

Sins a plenty piled by hoarders

Obey, obey, toss out window

Playing, playing their Nintendo

Happy, happy, keep them smiling

While their wicked deeds they’re piling

Gospel, gospel, not the message

Witness, witness, not envisage

Funny, funny, keep them laughing

While their chances they are passing

Modern, modern, that’s their market

Pleasing people is the target

Flip-flop, flip-flop gospel message

While their souls with lies they damage

Change up, change up, truth in order

Share the gospel with sin’s hoarders

Call them to forsake sin’s practice

Let obedience be their status
