Rocky Start (Parody of "Rockstar" by Nickelback)

Lyrics

I'm through with sand in my eyes because of weather and wind
 Seemed like a tropic paradise -- I remember movin' in
 This life hasn't turned out quite the way I thought it would be
 (Tell me what you want)
 I want a brand new house -- one that's never gonna drift
 Or collapse whenever the rains fall in
 And I think time's come to give up this sandbox dream
 (Yeah, so what you need)
 I need to get it started -- I'll begin it
 With a big flat layer of bedrock in it
 Gonna fortify my house like Matthew 7 counsels me
 (Built better, done right)
 I've got a new toolbox called the Word of God
 And I'll start on top of the Solid Rock
 Cause it's Extreme Human Makeover time for me
 (So how you gonna do it)
 I'm gonna change this life before it's in flames
 I'll even call Ty here to trade my space
 Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
 So we can build our house without a shifting yard
 It don't come easy, but it's dug down deep
 The walls stay standing and the steps won't creak
 And we'll hang tough in the cruelest storms
 When you see high winds on the news reports
 Every good homebuilder doesn't wind up scared
 Cause it's way more sturdy than the beach down there
 And, hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 Hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 I wanna build a great, white palace with stuff that lasts
 So I can make a Taj Mahal and not a big sandcastle
 Not with stubble, wood, or grass just like in First Corinthians 3
 (I'll have a casa de Dios, uh huh)
 I'm gonna bless my house with the greatest plans
 He said in John 14: 2 there's plenty more mansions
 Decorate with silver, gold, and precious stones provided for me
 (So how you gonna do it?)
 I'm gonna change change this life before it's in flames
 I'll even call Ty here to trade my space
 Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
 So we can build our house without a shifting yard
 It don't come easy, but it's dug down deep
 The walls stay standing and the steps won't creak
 And we'll hang tough in the cruelest storms
 When you see high winds on the news reports
 Every good homebuilder doesn't wind up scared
 Cause it's way more sturdy than the beach down there
 And, hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 Hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 And we'll wipe out all the private rooms
 Where we had addictions buried in their painted tombs
 I guess you never think this but in a while
 Everybody's gettin' dug deeper once we've died
 Well, hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 I'm gonna seize that stone that the builders rejected
 Gonna pass all codes when it gets inspected
 Let washed-up sinners try to mock my song
 They're sinkin' in the mire because they built it wrong
 Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
 So we can build our house without a shifting yard
 It don't come easy, but it's dug down deep
 The walls stay standing and the steps won't creak
 And we'll hang tough in the cruelest storms
 When you see high winds on the news reports
 Every good homebuilder doesn't wind up scared
 Cause it's way more sturdy than the beach down there
 And, hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 Hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
 And we'll wipe out all the private rooms
 Where we had addictions buried in their painted tombs
 I guess you never think this but in a while
 Everybody's gettin' dug deeper once we've died
 Well, hey, hey, I'm gonna need a rocky start
