Jackson, you're a strange cat – isn't John intense?
Thank God above, though, for crazy friends
Guys crack jokes but I don't care
I trust my Bible and they're in my prayers
Strange cat, but I believe He's right
I've a feeling that you know it way down inside
When the truth's shone at you from the mirror, man
Rescues sinners from the garbage can
Meow! Yeah
Yeah, don't talk like that!
I know the Father's grace in Christ abounds – oh, I know!
I've been down and out and lookin' for the light
How He found me, who knows? I was not somewhere nice
Speakin' the truth while the fraidy cats whine (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm a strange cat but the real God's mine (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I wish guys would heed that friendly advice (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But I got cat-scratched and I got chastised
LEAD
I know the Father's grace in Christ abounds
I've been down and out and lookin' for the light
Hallelujah to my Lord – He's awesome and nice!
Speakin' the truth while the fraidy cats whine (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm a strange cat but the real God's mine Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I wish guys could see that they're bein' unwise (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But I got cat-scratched and I got chastised
1 Peter 4:3-4
For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild
living, and they heap abuse on you.
