CARPENTER GONE BAD? |

There's a man down in the street |
|
Says he's the Messiah |
|
Telling people he is the Chosen One |
|
Says that He is in the Father |
|
And the Father's in the Son |
|
Empty nets made full of fish |
|
And blind eyes that see |
|
Didn't he used to work with wood in Galilee? |
|
Now he's in the synagogue |
|
Telling people they are wrong |
|
To live as whitewashed tombs |
|
Full of dead men's bones |
|
Some say he is the Son of God |
|
Others laugh and call him mad |
|
Well do you think he's who they say he is |
|
Or just a carpenter gone bad? |
|
People talking about him wherever I go |
|
They say he teaches with authority |
|
Is there something I don't know? |
|
The say it is his fervent prayer |
|
That we stay in the Father's care |
|
And believe that he is the Word made man |
|
Some say he is the Son of God |
|
Others laugh and call him mad |
|
Well do you think he's who he says he is |
|
Or just a carpenter gone bad? |
