(Eat 'em up! Mmm)
(Mmm That's enough)
(That's enough)
It's fishy!
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing) Now, now
(Why don't we just gently live?) Oh oh-ohhh
(5:15 Galatians -- make my observation) Oh!
(That's like piranha fish)
They say angry things -- I really don't dare
They're like piranha fish
They're straight-up nasty -- but I won't nip at them
Letting go is how I live
Some mask aggression while they smile so real
But they don't understand peace -- they really don't wanna heal
Or love their brothers -- tryin' hard to pick a fight
I've got to go -- I don't like things that bite! Sing!
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing)
(Why don't we just gently live?) Tell me why
(5:15 Galatians -- make my observation) Oh!
(That's like piranha fish) It's like pir-an-ha fish
(It's like piranha fish) That's a dangerous sort of fish
(It's like piranha fish) What they'll do just for a meal
(It's like piranha fish) The Son of Man told me what to do
(It's like piranha fish) Do unto others as you'd do unto you, now
Folks did me wrong -- I really got duped
People did some not not-nice things
But having strained relationships really disavows
The things Matthew wrote -- in 7 verse 12 about -- Sing!
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing) Yeah-eh-eh
(Why don't we just gently live?) Tell me why
(5:15 Galatians -- make my observation) 5:15 -- it's in Galatians
(That's like piranha fish) It's like pir-an-ha fish
(It's like piranha fish) Try and do like the Golden Rule
(It's like piranha fish) Try and live for Christ
(It's like piranha fish) When you do it, He blesses you
(It's like piranha fish)
Well, He tells me: Try and get by without strife (in your life)
Despite all of the things those people say
Ha-ah-ah oh-oh-oh oh-oh ohh oh Lord! (Ohhh yeah)
No kidding! This is like fish
Don't throw stones
Try to do what the Lord would do -- meek and true
Whenever we gather together in every endeavor
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing)
Everybody stop it ... now
(Why don't we just gently live?)
Why don't we just gently live, church?
(5:15 Galatians -- make my observation)
Don't need more friction in the body yeah-eh-eh
(That's like piranha fish)
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing)
Everybody stop it ... now-ow-ow-ow-ow
(Why don't we just gently live?)
(5:15 Galatians -- make my observation)
We don't need -- no more division
(That's like piranha fish)
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
SPOKEN
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free.
But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh;
rather, serve one another humbly in love.
For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command:
"Love your neighbor as yourself."
If you bite and devour each other, watch out
or you will be destroyed by each other.
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
Nuff said? We outta here
It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like (5:15 Galatians -- make my observation)
Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like (That's like piranha fish)
It's like (Whoa!)
It's like piranha fish -- it's like piranha (it's like -- like)
It's like, it's like, like, like
This thing is like piranha fish, can't see you, babe, it's wrong? Hah!
Why you wanna take a bite o' me?
(Everybody stop this wrong, destructive grousing)
Tell me, tell me, why?
Galatians 5:15
If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
