The Everlasting Now (Live from One Nite Alone Tour 2002)

Clap your hands y'all, c'mon uh
Clap your hands
This is the Everlasting Now

I knew this dude
He was very cool
He used to rule
Until he went to school
Not a normal school
That breeds a fool
But the one that teaches
Men aren't fit to rule
That's when he took his pearly crown
He raised it up and spun it 'round
And tossed into the deep blue underground
No longer lead by the ways of men
He looked for the kingdom deep within
That's when the drums in his head began to pound

Don't let nobody bring you down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now
Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring you down
The Everlasting Now

Say Portland, I wanna kinda get you to just jump up and down
Can you jump up and down
I heard ya upstairs goin' old school with me, say what, say what
C'mon y'all
I can't hear you, I can't hear ya
Aw!
I love you Portland!
Goodnight!

Don't let nobody bring you down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now
Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring you down
The Everlasting Now

I told you we were gonna go deep tonight
Now everybody, jump up and down
Jump up and down
Portland, jump up and down
The
Ever
Lasting
Now
I'm from Minneapolis, I don't play that
Lord
Thank you, goodnight
I ain't through
Candy, blow your horn
Portland, somebody say
Ow! Ow! Ow! Uh-ow! Uh-ow!
Thank you, goodnight!
Let's everybody get comfortable let me sing to you a little bit, alright?
