Band Name Origins:

  • the name, contrary to popular belief, was actually from thier favorite bible verse Submitted by: Allison
  • The name of the band came from C.S. Lewis's book "Mere Christianity." There is a part of the book where a child asks for six pence from his father to buy him a gift. The father gives his son the money and thinks that he spent six pence for a gift, so he is really getting the money back in the form of the gift. The band saw it fitting with the message that God gave His Son to buy back His creation. The origin was mentioned in Charisma magazine and many other sources. Submitted by: burgerjohnson

Misheard Lyrics:
Kiss me, out of the weird ass barley
Lightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the silly step
You wear those shoes and I'm wearing a bad dress OR You wear those shoes and I'm wearing a bag dress
Oh, kiss me, beneath the murky twilight
Leave me out on the moonlit floor
(Later)
Bring, bring, bring your flower and hat
We'll take the train marked on your father's map
Original Lyrics:
Kiss me, out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
(Later)
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
