Hornets in the Daisies

Well I won't say Hallelujah, and my bible's full of money
Open up those church doors if you please
'Cause man I'm comin' in…and I ain't gonna wipe my shoes
Lord you can't keep a sinner on his knees


Well I don't know how to tango, and there's hornets in the daisies
But tonight I'm handlin' snakes like they was car-keys
Well I heard the floodgates crashed last night
And that boy fell asleep at the switchplate
And now they're baptisin' anything that breathes


Oh…I would bust that light bulb with a hammer
Crawl down in the basement and pull that fuse
O Lord whatever force is required
Well, that's exactly what I'll use


YODEL


Oh well those trumpet valves have rusted
And the angels lost their pride
Don't y'know they're rakin' 'em in like a pile of dead leaves
Now there's bunk-beds for us up in Heaven
And even I got a friend in Jesus
I always knew he was waitin' up there for me
