For Those About to Talk (Speech Pollutes You)
Parody of “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)" performed by AC/DC and written by Brian Johnson, Angus Young & Malcolm Young
(Matthew 5:21-22, 12:34-37, 15:18-20; Luke 6:45; James 1:19-26, 3:2-12; 1 Corinthians 4:20; Proverbs 10:19; Ephesians 4:26-29)
Ohhhh yeah-eh yeahhh
Ooh-whoa-oh-oh-ohhh, oh-oh ohhh
We're all polite
Till we get in a fight
Yay yay-ay-ay
Ohhh!
Clam up and please count (to) 10
For once, don't argue 'bout your free speech
Reroute your feelings
Forgiveness is the thing ya need
Well, Hell helps fuel the good lines when talk is caustic right away
We ain't a religion based on talk
So just listen more and pray
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
We talk ad nauseam till we're tongue-tied
Like a low-flyin' hot-air balloon
Despise the wise words we get from Christ
Heads filled full of rocks and pride
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you — yes, it's true
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
Ohhh .. pollutes!
Ohhhh yeah!
Ohh yeah!
Look out!
Go check out Matthew 15:18 — forget your pride
Maybe it's aimed at you
Look up in 12:36 'cause it's canon
And 5:21,22
For those about to talk — Quiet! (speech pollutes you)
For those about to talk — (speech pollutes you)
Ohhh! Those about to talk — Quiet! (speech pollutes you)
Ohh! Quiet!
Speeeech polluuuuutes youuuu!
Speech pollutes you — come on, come on
For those about to talk, speech pollutes you
For those about to talk (yeah-eh) speech pollutes you
For those about to talk (yeah) speech pollutes you
For those about to talk (ohh!) speech pollutes you
Shush! Shush!
Shush! Shush!
Oh, for those who give explosive takes
Don't ya be snide — pump on the brakes
Speech pollutes you
Yeah!
Speech pollutes you
Speech pollutes you
Speech pollutes youuuuuuuuu
Quiet!
Matthew 15:18
But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.
