The Sermon

Brothers and sisters, we live in a troubled time
We live in a time when lack of ability and talent is mistaken for genius
When jumping on the bandwagon is considered originality
Ahh, we live in a time when a world intended, much needed musical revolution
Has been weakened, perverted, polluted, until it is no more than a hideous
fashion show
A fashion show that began as a rebellion itself against corporate mainstream
Yet today it finds itself to be the very mainstream that it claimed to be
alternative to
While the bands who would before criticize arena rock stars now find themselves
arena rock stars!
What was once the antidote has now become the poison
The cure has become the disease
Ahh, let the church sing
Amen!
(Congregation: Amen!!)
