Paul Thorn Mission Temple Fireworks Stand lyrics

I saw a black man with a Bible
And a sparkler in his van
He was holding a tent revival
And running a fireworks stand

He said the end of the world is coming
So you better get on your knees
Today bottle rockets are two for one
But the salvation's free

He said, I quit my job at a big church
Where the milk and money flowed
To sell cherry bombs for Jesus
In a tent beside the road

I ain't in it for the money
Most cars, pass on by
But I pay the rent on New Years
And the 4th of July

Here at the
Holy Ghost, Big Bang Theory
Pentecostal, fire and brimstone
Mission temple fireworks stand

He said, fireworks are dangerous
They can blow up in your face
So you better read the instructions
Light the fuse and get away

But these things are made in China
So it's easy to see
How a man who worships Buddha
Ain't got no guarantees


This is the
Holy Ghost, Big Bang Theory
Pentecostal, fire and brimstone
Mission temple fireworks stand

He said, everything I'm selling
Is all going up in smoke
This world is like an atom bomb
It's ready to explode

When the trumpet sounds
And the Lord comes back
I promise you one thing
I'll be a human bottle rocket
And I'll go out with a bang

I'll leave this
Holy Ghost, Big Bang Theory
Pentecostal, fire and brimstone
Mission temple fireworks stand

Yeah, I'll leave this
Holy Ghost, Big Bang Theory
Pentecostal, fire and brimstone
Mission temple fireworks stand

Yeah, I'll leave this
Holy Ghost, Big Bang Theory
Pentecostal, fire and brimstone
Mission temple fireworks stand
