Life Is Now In Session
The artist pays the price
So you won't have to pay
Only you would listen
To what he has to say
There are songs of wisdom
There are songs of satan
There are songs from lovin'
And there are songs from hatin'
There are songs from lust
And there are songs from pain
Some songs were done by chosen men
Some from men, insane
Groove, baby, groove on the light, one time
Groove, baby, on the right
Dance, baby, to the light this time
Dance sugar, on the right side
Groove, baby, groove on the light this time
Groove, baby, on the right side
Dance, baby, to the light, you're lookin' good
Dance, baby, on the right
Some songs will show which way to go
If only you would listen
Bad songs that turn you on
Show you how much is missing
Songs we're meant to listen to
Listen to the best
Good songs were sent to men from God
To help us pass the test
Oh, life is for learning
And the purpose is joinin' up with the Lord
A thousand bodies
But the soul is never destroyed
Maybe learn from me, baby
Not to the man out in the rain
We gotta get ourselves together
Or right here is where we remain
Your love, your love, baby, this is all I desire
And if you really understand me, baby then help me fan my fire
Sometimes a song can prophesy a warning from the master
To make your soul listen to and make your learnin' faster
The Devil has his special kind
To make hot songs for sinners
Then God will turn it around
And make good songs for winners
You know that songs can make you wicked
Corrupt your flesh to dust
You know the songs that you should love
Are songs that you can trust
I can't stand it, baby!
There's no reason why we should part
So you won't have to pay
Only you would listen
To what he has to say
There are songs of wisdom
There are songs of satan
There are songs from lovin'
And there are songs from hatin'
There are songs from lust
And there are songs from pain
Some songs were done by chosen men
Some from men, insane
Groove, baby, groove on the light, one time
Groove, baby, on the right
Dance, baby, to the light this time
Dance sugar, on the right side
Groove, baby, groove on the light this time
Groove, baby, on the right side
Dance, baby, to the light, you're lookin' good
Dance, baby, on the right
Some songs will show which way to go
If only you would listen
Bad songs that turn you on
Show you how much is missing
Songs we're meant to listen to
Listen to the best
Good songs were sent to men from God
To help us pass the test
Oh, life is for learning
And the purpose is joinin' up with the Lord
A thousand bodies
But the soul is never destroyed
Maybe learn from me, baby
Not to the man out in the rain
We gotta get ourselves together
Or right here is where we remain
Your love, your love, baby, this is all I desire
And if you really understand me, baby then help me fan my fire
Sometimes a song can prophesy a warning from the master
To make your soul listen to and make your learnin' faster
The Devil has his special kind
To make hot songs for sinners
Then God will turn it around
And make good songs for winners
You know that songs can make you wicked
Corrupt your flesh to dust
You know the songs that you should love
Are songs that you can trust
I can't stand it, baby!
There's no reason why we should part
