High Spirits (Verse 1) You’re leaning on the jukebox like it’s holding up the wall Your words are doing gymnastics, but you're headed for a fall You think you’re being "merry," but the Bible’s got a word For a man who’s acting like a bird that’s slightly blurred King Solomon is shaking his head from Proverbs Twenty-One He says, “Wine is a mocker, boy, and you are nearly done.” He’s seen a thousand kingdoms fall into a wine-vat floor And he’s standing there with Noah, who’s pointing at the door! (Pre-Chorus) It’s a "drunken stupor" party, but the guest list is a mess— Even Paul is writing letters 'bout the way you’re under-dressed! (Chorus) (Bouncy rhythm) The Spirit’s got the fruit, but yours is fermented in a jar! You’re looking for a Savior, but you’re looking at a bar Jesus says be "sober-minded," keep your head on straight and true 'Cause you can’t walk on water with a belly full of brew! It’s cute to see you stumble till you’re waking up in shame— God’s got a better plan for you than "What’s my middle name?" (Verse 2) Now Proverbs Thirty-One woman, she’s the one with all the sense She’s looking at your bar tab and she’s sitting on the fence She says, “I work the field and I keep my house in line, While you’re trying to find the bottom of a bottle of the vine?” And Esther’s in the corner, looking regal, looking smart She says, “I saved a nation, honey—you can’t find your cart!” Even Mary’s got a look like, “I didn’t raise my Son To watch you get so sloppy before the night is even done.” (Bridge) (Slower, sassy tempo) Isaiah says there’s "Woe" to those who rise up in the morn To chase after the strong drink until their spirit’s torn The Bible isn't whispering, it’s shouting from the pew: “Don't be drunk with wine, but let the Spirit fill up you!” 'Cause when you’re in a stupor, you’re an open, empty gate— And the Enemy is hungry, and he’s happy just to wait. (Final Chorus) The Spirit’s got the fruit, but yours is fermented in a jar! You’re looking for a Savior, but you’re looking at a bar Jesus says be "sober-minded," keep your head on straight and true 'Cause you can’t walk on water with a belly full of brew! It’s cute to see you stumble till you’re waking up in shame— God’s got a better plan for you than "What’s my middle name?" (Outro) (Banjo solo speeds up) Put the cap back on the bottle. Get your knees down on the floor. There’s a wine that never runs out... Waiting at the Father's door! So "Just Say No" like Nancy, and listen close to Paul— Getting "High" on Jesus... is the best "Spirit" of them all! (Hallelujah shout!) (Amen!)
