[Verse 1]
This is not a parable
This is a terrible
This is a terrible thing
Yes, I will rhyme that after
After all I've done today
I have earned my wings

[Chorus]
It happened today, hooray, hooray
It happened, hip-hip-hooray

[Verse 2]
We'll leave the allegory
To another Bible story
Out of deference, defiance and choice
And close in on a promise after
After all I've done today
I have earned my voice

[Chorus]
It happened today, hooray, hooray
It happened, hip-hip-hooray

[Instrumental]
