Adam lives in theory tryin' to turn stone into bread Masquerading like he's got it figured out Cut off from the sunshine, only smart in his own head Leaving his descendants to hope and doubtLeft to his devices, those worthless sacrifices Praying to the altar of his self Making pilgrimages thinking he's religious Like he's got all the light, and no one elseHe takes the unsuspected 'Cuz he knows they're not connected And he shows them how to be just as he is, virtually real And commercially appeal, to the lust of all the people where he livesEve was so naive, blinded by the pride and greed Wanting to be intellectual Drifting from the way, she got turned down one day And now she thinks that she's bisexualCaught up in emotion, burning up in her devotion To the king of exploitation in the field She handed him her virtue, 'cuz he told, "I won't hurt you" So she lay with him to see how good it feelsNow can you tell me, what, what we gonna do now? Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now? Now can you tell me, what, what we gonna do now? Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?Now after the sensation, and the empty fornication She brought infection home into her bed Quickly multiplying, now the three of them are dyin' By the poison she perceived to be goodNow Eve and her husband, are perverted in their judgment 'Cuz everything appeared to be the same They entertain suggestions, next time just use protection Desiring to cover up their shameBut much to their demise, poor decision closed their eyes To the very antidote of their dilemma Burning in their lust, both of them adulterous Destroying the original agendaPraying to the sky, in order to maintain a lie They exhausted every possible conclusion They can't even entertain, or the solution in a brain Or filled with vain, information and pollutionHiding from the truth, he provided an excuse To explain away his desperate situation When confronted, blamed his wife, giving birth to carnal life Refusing to acknowledge what he'd doneAnd now, if we can agree with who created us to be Who says we're guilty, everyone before His eyes Making no exceptions, since the day of our conception Predisposed to hating truth, and loving liesThen can you tell me, what, what we gonna do now? Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now? Now can you tell me, what, what we gonna do now? Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?Stop walking in pride, let the thief be crucified Unlearn everything you know and let Him teach you Line upon line, and precept upon precept Say goodbye to this decaying social systemHe wants to know, how far we're willing to go? If we love Him like we say we do, He'll try us Just you don't regress, or slip into hopelessness Once He's satisfied, His love, He won't deny usAnd then He'll tell us what, what we gonna do now Where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now And then He'll tell us, what, what we gonna do now Where we gonna go now, what we gonna say nowI'm telling you, telling you, I'm telling you I'm telling you, I'm telling you, I'm telling you He's gonna tell us, tell us, tell us Ooh! Yeah
