Well I’m uh back in the fourth grade and I’m uh 10 I guess    When weird women thought we kids all lived to take tests    Kinda kept to myself – real shy kid    I liked old rock songs and the pop'lar hits    There was a kid talkin' 'bout a choir they got    He said a lot of the spots were not locked because    The guy who taught with the choir was still fillin' the rows    And lots of kids couldn't sound the notes    And he told me it's fun to sing with the choir    Get known as a kid that God set apart    Said to me you wanna? I'm gonna go    Try out for the choir fella you should come along    Start attendin' church service in robes just like Jesus    And get a spot in the Four Tops or Four Seasons    That rocks! Cause I'm a real good voice    And I'm takin' that test, sucka, because I'm gonna be a    Choirboy baby    With a top 10 smash and the nuns all smiling    Choirboy baby    Guess who’s chillin’ with the boys’ choir    I’m gonna be a choirboy baby    Shinin’ my light while the people pray    Choirboy baby    A cappella singer from a higher plane       I let him hear my little vocals and he said, "You’re in"    I go "Ah ah ah ah ah" – I dusted my friend    Told him "You won’t do – there’s no gown in your size"    Well that’s his loss – my gown it fits fine    They told me "Believe in Jesus Christ"    I'll get Him after this part of my exciting life    Cause if I time this right I'm gonna make like a Beach Boy    And let California girls know why they all need a    Choirboy baby    Better stop that act everyone’s not buyin’    Choirboy baby    Just like Dylan with a good voice    I’m gonna be a choirboy baby    Hidin’ my life while I seem O.K.    Choirboy baby    I can tell a fib with a smiley face       Yeah it rocked – you can call me "blessed"    Only something’s missin’ ’cause I gotta confess    Seems the sin that’s in my head is growin’ wild and fast    It’d get this kid kicked right out of Mass    No kidding I’m sittin’ in church gettin’ real bored    Call the cops ‘cause I’m lost - where’s the cross and the Lord?    Felt remorse and embarrassed and I tried to get right    Felt like hangin’ down my head and hangin’ up my life (Huh!)    Got famous – rocked the eleventh grade ‘cause    Director picked me for my senior play yes    Got to wear make-up – rock band came up    They told me sing lead but then the band breaks up    Pride had got a grip on me    Robbed me of the sort of faith I’d need    I didn’t know Jesus – I would just beg Him for favors    Finally straight out of college I made Him my Savior    Now life’s a pleasure – this guy’s legit    I’d always heard that Christians was radical idiots    I make it my biz to dispel that notion    And keep on trustin’ Him with all my devotion    Choirboy    With a rock band that’s into song rewritin’    Choirboy    Spend all my time at finding words that rhyme    Choirboy    Ridin’ all night cause the gigs I play    Choirboy    Might be held at 800 miles away    Choirboy    With ApologetiX backin’ the songs I’m rhymin’    Choirboy    With a top 10 smash and the Son’s inside me.    Choirboy   Only God knows why now
