Everything You Know (Is Incorrect) Lyrics
Randy Stonehill, David Edwards
You may know the ways of this world
Like the back of your hand
Be as shrewd as a serpent in Eden's tree
But all his tempting substitutes
Cannot compare to the simple truth
Chorus:
You can turn the right, turn to the left
'Til you turn to the One who gives us breath
Everything you do, everything you are
Everything you know is incorrect
You may be a techno tycoon
Just like William Gates
You may travel the world like a Rolling Stone
But if the truth don't set you free
You'll only be a refugee
[repeat Chorus]
Pull out that rotten wisdom tooth
Now that's a wise extraction
For all the good it's given you
You still can't get no, get no, get no satisfaction
You may know the roar of applause and the spotlight of fame
Have a face that could grace every magazine
You may be the president and think you're power is heaven sent
[repeat Chorus]
Turn the right, turn to the left
'Til you turn to the One who loves you best
Everything you do and everything you are
And everything you know is incorrect
