Intro:

Today's the day, Ooh, Ooh

Verse:

I'm gonna tell you about a man

everyone knew him as a thief

but he was honorable

when they hung him beside the CHIEF OF CHIEFS...

Chorus:

So, long live that refugee

who stood up for THEE in his dying hour

for he will be with him

in the kingdom which is paradise, today

Post-Chorus:

Paradise, paradise, today, ooh, ooh

Verse:

They called this CHIEF the PRINCE OF PEACE

The SON OF GOD, the only hope of man

but they didn't listen

they nailed him to a cross by his hands...

Chorus

Post-Chorus

Verse: Another thug mocked the CHIEF

but the thief spoke with what he had to say

then he cried out, and the CHIEF said "today's the day"
