Guilty By Association - Steve Taylor

So you need a new car?

Let your fingers take a walk

Through the business guide

For the 'Born Again' flock

You’ll be keeping all your money

In the Kingdom now

And you’ll only drink milk

From a Christian cow

Don’t you go casting your bread

To keep the heathen well fed

Line Christian pockets instead

Avoid temptation, guilty by association

Turn the radio on

To a down-home drawl

Hear a Brylcream prophet

With a message for y’all

I have found a new utensil

In the devil’s toolbox

And the heads are gonna roll

If Jesus rocks

It’s a worldly design

God’s music should be divine

Try buying records like mine

Avoid temptation, guilty by association

So you say, it’s of the devil

And we’ve got no choice

Because you heard a revelation

From the, 'Still Small Voice', hey you

If the Bible doesn’t back it

Then it seems quite clear

Perhaps it was the devil

Who whispered in your ear

It’s a Telethon Tuesday

For 'The Gospel Club'

Send your money in now

Or they’re gonna pull the plug

You just remember this fact

When they plead and beg

When the chicken squawks loudest

Gonna lay a big egg

You could be smelling a crook

You should be checking The Book

But you’d rather listen than look

The implication, guilty by association
