don't teach me about politics and government
just tell me who to vote for
don't teach me about truth and beauty
just label my music
don't teach me how to live like a free man
just give me a new law
(pre-chorus)
i don't wanna know if the answers aren't easy
so just bring it down from the mountain to me
(chorus)
i want a new law
i want a new law
gimme that new law
(vs. 2)
don't teach me about moderation and liberty
i prefer a shot of grape juice
don't teach me about loving my enemies
don't teach me how to listen to the Spirit
just give me a new law
(pre-chorus/chorus)
(bridge)
what's the use in trading a law you can never keep
for one you can that cannot get you anything
do not be afraid
do not be afraid
do not be afraid
