Hem-hem, alright
Lalalala
So you think you're so big you can just do it on your own?
Like the prodigal son, when he ran away from home
Was his very own man, took his life in his own hands
But was brought to his knees by the famine in the land
A fool for the system, eating with the swine
Or a fool for his daddy, back and drinking wine
Now you're headed for the pit, and I congratulate ya
Take a look at yourself and see what your pride has made ya
Will you suffer for the world, work for bleeding and death
Or will you come back home and work for Daddy instead?
I'm a sucker for love, a fool for Christ's sake
A slave of the cross I choose to take
I'm all bought up, and now I'm not my own
It's the greatest freedom I've ever, ever known
Lalalala
You want to outsmart life, want to buy your freedom
Well, so did Eve in the garden of Eden
But when her naked body was raped, with shame
She knew down inside she had herself to blame
Oh, she thought she'd bend the rules
She thought she'd be no fool
But she's the sucker now because just look whose fool she was
And now you're standing in the garden, and the serpent will taunt you
And dare you to go, go and do as you want to
But he knows the choice is what the choice has always been
You're a fool for God, or you're a fool for him
I'm a sucker for love, a fool for Christ's sake
A slave of the cross I choose to take
I'm all bought up, and now I'm not my own
It's the greatest freedom I've ever, ever known
Yes, I'm a sucker for love, a fool for Christ's sake
A slave of the cross that I choose to take
I'm all bought up, and I'm not my own
But it's the greatest kind of freedom I've ever, ever known
You know, it really doesn't matter whatever you are
If you're a business man, a worker, or a superstar
You think you're working for yourself, well, you've been deceived
Believing what the serpent would want you to believe
But as far as I'm concerned, the choice is down to two
Either God or the devil, tell me whose fool are you?
I'm a sucker for love, a fool for Christ's sake
A slave of the cross I choose to take
I'm all bought up, and now I'm not my own
It's the greatest freedom I've ever, ever known
I'm a sucker for love, a fool for Christ's sake
A slave of the cross I choose to take
I'm all bought up, and now I'm not my own
It's the greatest freedom I've ever, ever known
