Album: Ticked

Parody of "Come Out and Play" by The Offspring
(2 Chronicles 7:14)

And students, the thing to remember about church and state ...
(You gotta keep 'em separated!)
Don't try to pray in the classroom
You can't be spreading your faith
They turn our class into an atheist vacuum
While they're separating church from the state
They can't stand God, so they took Him out
Started back in '62 and look at us now
They warn that government and God just don't mix
You're gonna have to stop, have to stop, have to stop, have to stop
Hey! Are you talkin' 'bout your faith'
Take him out! (You gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey! Are you mixin' church and state'
Take him out! (You gotta keep 'em separated)
Hey! Don't you see the rise
In murder, rape, teenage pregnancies and suicides'
Hey! Come out and pray!
Now it's sex, drugs and violence -- the American way
Crumble the morals and the government fails
Once God's ousted, it's a matter of fate
We're goin' down the same path as others before
Everyone from Sodom to the USSR
They never ever see it till it's finally too late
You better find your own hope, find your own hope, find your own
Faith -- Man, is this what's left for me' Where to now'
(You gotta keep 'em educated)
Hey! When they all grow up to be -- criminals
(You gotta keep incarcerated)
Hey! I hope you don't mind
Murder, rape, teenage pregnancies and suicides
Hey! Come out and pray!
The moral is the same 'cause it's happened before
Turn to Second Chronicles and turn to the Lord
In 7, verse 14, He says, "If My people pray ..."
They're gonna finally know hope
Finally know hope, finally know hope, finally know
Hey! Man, there's nothin' to believe -- where to know'
(You gotta keep 'em motivated)
Hey! And the kids grow up to be animals!
(You gotta keep 'em all sedated)
Hey! I hope you don't mind
Murder, rape, teenage pregnancies and suicides
Hey! Come out and pray
