Parody of "A.D. 1928/Rockin' the Paradise" performed by Styx and written by Dennis DeYoung
(Luke 23:43)
NOTE: This song was originally recorded at our fifth concert ever, June 20, 1992, at the Paradise
Club in Irwin PA. We released it on our first live cassette, "Get Your Wigs," in June 1992.
Tonight's the night ancient history will surely come alive
'Cause we'll take many hits
And write them the way we like
To give them a brand new life
So listen close to what we say
'Cause it could change your life
Like this old hair salon was changed by the love of Christ
Into the Paradise!!!
LEAD
Watcha doin' tonight?
Can't you see that this world's gone crazy?
All America's searchin' for the Way
There's people looking around
But if they'd start lookin' upsy-daisy
They'd see that the Truth's the same as yesterday
We need to catch their ear with something they've heard
Rock it, roll it, shaken and stirred
Take the oldies, bring 'em the Word
Of the best piece of Good News that they've ever heard
So watcha doin' tonight?
Have you heard of regeneration?
To live forever there's just one thing you've got to do
It's time to turn on the light
And shine it bright on a weary nation
We can conquer the darkness with the living Truth
We'll sing the songs you knew from radio land
Run them through this microphone stand
Make them new the way that we planned
Take it to every man Ð and we'll be
Rockin' at Paradise, Rockin' to Paradise tonight
Rockin' the Paradise, Rockin' the Paradise tonight
REPEAT
Tonight! Tonight!
LEAD
We'll sing the songs you knew from radio land
Run them through this microphone stand
Make them new the way that we planned
Take it to every man Ð and we'll be
CHORUS
Luke 23:43
Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
