Lyrics
THE EX-GENERATION
There is a generation that curses their dad
And has no blessings for their mom
There's a generation pure in their own eyes
And yet not washed from their filthiness
There is a generation, oh how lofty are their eyes
Staring from their CDs and TVs
With teeth like swords and jaw teeth just like knives
To eat the poor like bread - Oooh
Chorus:
The Ex-Generation?s here to leave their mark
A pierced band to pierce the earth
No man can stay the hand that leads them on
Living in the shadow of the end - Oooh
"Generation W" didn't take the time
They gave their holy children to the dogs
And cast their precious pearls before the swine
And now they wonder ?Y? - Oooh
(Chorus)
Jesus is changing sinners into ex-sinners now
Davids and Moseses into ex-murderers
Mary Magdalenes, into ex-prostitutes
They're part of His army now, and they?re taking back the night
Jesus calls His own from out of every generation
And sets their lives apart for Himself
Now we've been born again into the Holy Nation
To be the people of God - Oooh
(Chorus)
