New Attitude Parody

Hey hey!

Well, I still haven't had sufficient temporal freedom to justify the time it will take to write up the New Attitude trip, but I did come up with a parody of "Crooked Teeth" by Death Cab for Cutie. Mostly it came from the line "And kids strung out on homemade speed," which I kept thinking of as "we were kids strung out on lots of caffeine." :-)

The song is on the web HERE, and the words are below. Not everything may make sense, but I think you'll get the idea of the crazy good times and crazy good teachings we got:

It was one hundred degrees as we ran in the dark and played Frisbee
And we just didn’t care, we just stayed up all night
And refused, to stop, to sto – op

And we saw we’d made a horrible call
It’s a holiday, nothing’s open at all
So we hung around in a hotel room
And ate food

‘Cause God gave us some truth for our hearts
The teaching was good, every scriptural part,

‘Cause you can’t do nothing at all
If you don’t hold the gospel strong,
No you can’t do nothing at all
If you don’t hold the gospel strong

Yes, we played on deserted streets,
We were kids strung out on lots of caffeine
We had hotel rooms, but we did not sleep
At all, woo hoo, woo hooooo

And the pop, and the candy and treats
Tasted mighty fine, but they were bad for our teeth
And the elevators were filled with Beatle freaks and guitars

All those dudes came to louvul to speak,
Now the conference is done and they want us to leave..

And you can’t change nothing at all
If you don’t hold the gospel strong,
We’ve got churches, care-groups and songs,
Keep the gospel center and strong

So, there ya go :-) I know I know, I left out the third verse, but whatever. I figured it'd get tiresome, so I kept it succinct. Enjoy, and thank you Lord for New Attitude and for the truth it presented!
