Opinions count when they’re tantamount
Opinions count. Not all of them, of course. But the ones that are tantamount to truth…those count. And, sadly, there are fewer and fewer of those kinds. Because there’s an assault on truth the likes of which America has never seen before. And people who are in rebellion against God attempt to blur facts and figures as often as they stir the synthetic cream into their coffee.
But Truth will not be blurred or squelched forever.
Because opinions count, for good, when they line up with Truth.
And I’m talking about the Truth that has always been. And always will be. The only Truth that will set you free. The Truth that blots out false knowledge and provides eternal life. Everything else is just idle babblings and contradictions. And those are just small-minded opinions. And…
Everybody’s Got One
Jesse says he wants equality; says we’ve got goals to reach.
Jimmy’s war is with iniquity; says he’s got souls to teach.
Norma claims that it’s her right to make her own decision.
Nancy wildly disagrees; they’re on a one-way collision.
Every time you know you’re right
Your opinion’s like a stick of dynamite
And everybody’s got one!
Danny says he wants respect; says he’s got a job to do.
But David jabs and pokes his fun; just the same as me and you.
Pat declares we all should pay to clean up our environment.
And Joan believes it’s federal; so leave it to the government.
Every time you know you’re right
Your opinion’s like a stick of dynamite
And everybody’s got one…everybody’s got one.
Everybody’s got one
Sometimes it’s right, but sometimes we put it in the wrong place.
Everybody’s got one
Sometimes we should hold back,
And those times we end up with egg on our face.
It’s our right, but we’re not always right…not always right,
But everybody’s got one.
Scott insists that we evolved; that Darwin proved it years ago.
But Tony’s faith is with his God; the Holy Spirit tells him so.
And Sue defends the life she leads; calls herself a working girl.
But Kathy says she sold her soul, and that’s the problem with the world.
Every time you know you’re right,
Your opinion’s like a stick of dynamite
And everybody’s got one…everybody’s got one
Chorus…inst…chorus to end
