Cult of cool


It's just another lie to sell to me
But I'm not buying
To live the way they do on MTV
Yeah you're trying

Just a little too hard and we can see through
There's a guy in a suit and he's trying to tell you
What you should like and what you should do
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus
We won't play by your rules
Here is one you won't fool
I think it's dumb
I won't succumb to the cult of cool
To the cult of cool
To the cult of cool

To them you're just a number on a page
A target market
Try it out on someone your age
And hope you buy it

You're trying too hard and we can see through
There's a guy in a suit and he's trying to tell you
What you should like and what you should do
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus

There is a decision to be made
Will you conform?
That is how the companies get paid
Or are you transformed?

You pay somebody to poison your mind
Will you be a target marker or will you be a gold mine?
There's a brainwash store and they're waiting in line
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Their sound was characterized by energetic ska rhythms and positive lyrics with Christian messages.
