Bad Things for a Good Time - ApologetiX

Now Iisten

I’m not a zombie and I ain’t Clark Kent

I can barely make it through, I’m weak

Every night I used to take on the world

But not now I had to break that streak, yuh

I know the world enslaved me every day

God said, «Let Me break off those shameful shackles»

I needed His help to get away

But lookee here today

This is what I say

Don’t need bad things for a good time

Now, man, I resist

Ain’t lookin' to bad things for a good time

'Cause the Lord is better than this

Instead of spendin' my money on women and wine

A Bible study’s where I spent last night

I read 'bout Solomon and just like him

I lived my life for fun and every passing whim

But all the worst things enslaved me every day

Glad to get a break from those shameful shackles

I needed Jesus to show the Way

But lookee here today

This is what I say

Don’t need bad things for a good time

Now when I resist

I’m lookin' to God’s things for a good time

And they don’t get better than His

You see, I

I praise the Lord for callin' us

And for takin' us back when we stray

He wanted a good life for us in Christ

Lord, thank goodness for grace, yeah!

Hallelujah!

Get righteous

Don’t need bad things for a good time

How can I resist?

Hey, look in Philippians 4:8, you’ll find

There’s a long incredible list

Don’t need bad things for a good time

How can I resist?

Hey, look in Colossians for some good lines

In 3:1 through 10 about this

You won’t regret it, baby
