Proverbs 23:26-28 & Proverbs 6:25-26, 32


smiling from
Hollywood
looking fine
looking good
not enough
clothing on
calling you
going on
what you gonna look at
don’t let her in your heart

refrain:
my son, give me your heart
let your eyes keep to my ways
for a prostitute is a deep pit
and a wayward wife is a narrow well
like a bandit she lies in wait
and multiplies the unfaithful among men

microsoft
fellowship
isolated
intimate
even less
clothing on
point & click
take your pick
is this really freedom
or are you just a loaf of bread?

refrain

smiling from
down the hall
flesh & blood
next to you
classroom dress
clothing on
but in your heart what’s
going on?
how will you be faithful
in this prison that you’ve made

refrain
