Monkeys at the Zoo

Will it be different now, or the same?
Will I have learned anything
Or was it just a way to spend a day or two
Set aside for thinking thoughts about you?
If that's all it was, I had a good time

But that won't be enough for me
Not this year, not anytime soon
I have got to clean house
Gotta make my bed
Gotta clear my head
It's getting kinda stuffy in here
Smells sort of funky too
Like monkeys at the zoo
And I have been whoring after things
'Cause I wanna feel safe inside
That's a big, fat lie
No amount of green, gold or silver
Will ever take the placе
Of the peace of God

Spirit, comе flush the lies out
Spirit, come flush the lies out

Will it be different now, or the same?
Have I changed at all?
And if you were to dive deep inside my soul
Would you find Jesus there or a gaping hole?
Should I be content with my "beautiful" life?

But that won't be enough for me
Not this year, not anytime soon
I have got to clean house
Gotta make my bed
Gotta clear my head
It's getting kinda stuffy in here
Smells sort of funky too
Like monkeys at the zoo
And I have been whoring after things
'Cause I wanna get everything right
That's a big, fat lie
No amount of green, gold or silver
The perfect body
Another hot toddy
Work for the Lord, fame and power
Power and sex, a seat at the table
At the Belle Mead Country Club
Here's the rub
Nothing will ever take the place
Of the peace of God

Spirit, come flush the lies out
Spirit, come flush the lies out

Will it be different now, or the same?
Will I have learned anything?
