La música cristiana es de origen judío: la liturgia musical de la sinagoga, en particular el canto psalmódico de los judíos como unidad poética musical, fue un legado preciado transmitido del Israel antiguo al cristianismo primitivo, como forma de manifestar tanto a nivel personal como comunitario las creencias religiosas y la fe en Dios.
Hey girl, you've got a smart way about you
that makes me wish that
that I was smart enough for you.
Hey girl, you've got a fine laugh,
and I think that I could get used to that.
And you're already used to laughing at me.
So what if your friends think I'm crazy, well
I wasn't trying to impress those girls anyway.
They're all theory, no action,
and where I'm from we live
like it's the latest attraction.
Hey girl, you've got a short fuse,
and I've got designs on lighting you up,
and setting you off,
and watching you burn for me.
The world lives for the weekend
Well, I'll watch as my weeks
bleed right into them
Without a line to divide what is theirs
and what is mine
So what if your friends think I'm crazy, well
I wasn't trying to impress those girls anyway.
They're all theory, no action,
and where I'm from we live
like it's the latest attraction.
And go on, go on, your cruel intentions
Won't solve your problems,
everyone's gotta get bottom
bottomed out in the long run
and those are the times you need love.
