Down on the corner
They've got it all figured out
Little room for mystery
Little room for doubt
Got no time for questions
Everything is black and white
That’s right

A little further down the highway
They're studyin' the word
If you ain’t heard out version
Brother, you ain't really heard
It's our darlin' revelation
Everything is crystal clear

Cool and collected
Nothing left to learn, nearly perfected
Lord, have mercy on our arrogant souls
Before we were us
It was You alone, I know

God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in, oh, no
He won't be contained
By some shiny, wrapped-up view of Him
God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in

Lord, we know everything You're up to
Know just what to expect
Who You’re gonna nail
And who You’re gonna protect
So come on, line 'em up, sign ’em up
All our little ducks in a row

So, come on, tell me
Who's got all the answers
God is not puppet on a string, no, no
He ain't no carnival prancer
Come on, open up the doors
For the strong and mighty King

Whoa, God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in, whoa, no
He won’t be contained
By some shiny, wrapped-up view of Him
God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in, whoa!

So, come on, tell me
Who's got all the answers
God is not puppet on a string, no, sir
He ain't no carnival prancer
Come on, open wide your doors
For the strong and mighty King

God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in
Whoa, no, no, no
God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in
Whoa, no, no, no

God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in
He ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in
He won't be contained, no
He won't be contained
By some shiny, wrapped-up view of Him
Whoa, God ain't gonna stay
In the little box I put Him in
