E5 Once I read a book G5 And this is what it said A5 E5 If your music has a beat E5 Then you're gonna wind up dead E5 G5 It doesn't really matter if it's Christian or not A5 E5 If it's syncopated rhythm then your soul is gonna rot E5 G5 And this book was called "Ha! Your Gonna Burn" A5 E5 And in the second chapter I went on to learn E5 G5 Take two houseplants A5 E5 And put them to the test E5 G5 Set them both in front of speakers A5 E5 And let the music do the rest E5 G5 The first one you play Mozart A5 E5 Or something lovely like that E5 G5 A5 E5 The second one you play that Petra Or that MegaDeth. E5 Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. E5 G5 So I took my two houseplants A5 E5 And I put them to the test E5 G5 Set them both in front of speakers A5 E5 To let the music do the rest E5 G5 I powered up my Pioneers A5 E5 To let the music roar E5 G5 But twenty minutes later A5 E5 Someone's knocking at my door E5 I opened up my door G5 And there my neighbor stood A5 He said, "Man I'd like to get some sleep E5 If you think I could" E5 G5 I said, "Man, can't you see here A5 E5 I've got this moral dilemma that I got to get clear." E5 He said, "What kind of moral dilemma G5 Could you have at this time of night A5 That could make me so angry E5 ------- That I just want to fight!?" E5 G5 So I pointed to the page in that open book A5 That had a picture of a potted plant E5 And I said, "Go have a look." And he read E5 G5 Take two houseplants A5 E5 And put them to the test E5 G5 Set them both in front of speakers A5 E5 And let the music do the rest E5 G5 The first one you play Mozart A5 E5 Or something lovely like that E5 G5 A5 E5 The second one you play that Petra Or that MegaDeth. Doesn't really matter what kind of rock it is. LONE RANGER E5 First of all he said, G5 "That's Vagner that you're playing A5 I've never heard of Petra E5 And isn't MegaDeth all dead." E5 G5 A5 And secondly, emphatically, He asked me, E5 E5 G5 "What's the sense of hanging out with houseplants when, hey, A5 E5 I live right across the fence." (mute) And I thought to myself You know, that's a good point E5 G5 So I took my two houseplants, and A5 E5 I put them both back outside E5 G5 And me and my neighbor A5 E5 Well, we went out for a drive E5 G5 We talked about all the things A5 E5 That really matter most E5 G5 Like life and love and happiness A5 E5 And then the Holy Ghost E5 G5 A5 E5 E5 G5 And now my two houseplants A5 E5 They sit out in the sun E5 G5 But as for my neighbor A5 E5 Well our friendship has become E5 G5 A meaningful relationship A5 E5 That's headed straight to heaven E5 But as for now G5 A5 We like to sit around and listen to Audio Adrenaline E5 Cranked to eleven!
