Parody of "Play That Funky Music" by Wild Cherry
(1 Cor. 9:22, Romans 12:2, Titus 1:15)
Now once I was a kooky singer -- playin' in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems
Singing songs that weren't nice then
But whenever Jesus found me
God said not to sing them no more
So I decided biblically
To switch them round and check how it'd go
And they were dancin' and diggin' the music we was usin'
And just when it hit them the words were turned around
They shouted
Play that funny music right, boy
Play that funny music right
Play that funny music right, boy
They got confused
Cause I played them Sunday music in disguise
In disguise? In disguise!
LEAD
Now first it wasn't easy
Changin' rock and rollin' lines
I sing but when He saved me
I thought I'd have to leave it behind
But now it's so much better
I'm pointing out the heavenly way
I get accused of stealin'
But now I turn to Wesley and say
Man they were dancin' and diggin' the music we was usin'
And just when it hit them the words were turned around
They shouted
Play that funny music right, boy
Play that funny music right
Play that funny music right, boy
They're not amused
And they say that what we're doin' isn't right
But is it right? Is it right?
