Shush

(James 1:19-26, 3:2-12; 1 Corinthians 4:20; Matthew 5:21-22, 12:34-37, 15:18-20; Luke 6:45; Proverbs 10:19; Ephesians 4:26-29)

Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na
Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na

I got the urge to tell the world what's on my mind
Told God about it and took some time
Seems the best approach if I'm ever mad
Sometimes the tongue can make a deal go bad

Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na
Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na

Shush, shush
That's what I learned from followin' James, now
Shush, shush
I close my mouth if there's nothin' good to say, now
Shush, shush
That's what I learned from followin' James, now
Shush, shush
I'll be more lovin' if I stop to pray, now

(Blah, blah) I got an early little warning
(Blah, blah) because of James chapter 3 and
(Blah, blah) Also 1:19, man
(Blah, blah) Oh, I got a godly habit

See, God above don't like quick rants
Won't be good to toughen your stance
I close my mouth when I'm in too deep
But I can speak out when I'm discreet

Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na
Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na

Just shush, shush
That's what I learned from followin' James, now
Shush, shush
I close my mouth if there's nothin' good to say, now
Shush, shush
That's what I learned from followin' James, now
Shush, shush
I'll be more lovin' if I stop to pray, now

(Blah, blah) I got an early little warning
(Blah, blah) because of James chapter 3 and
(Blah, blah) Ohhh 1:19, man
(Blah, blah) Hey, I got a godly habit

Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na
Na na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na

James 1:19-20
My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.
