Going Public Lyrics
She's been dazed, and induced,
Wants a part-time God,
For her private use.
But she won't take a stand,
'Cause she might get tagged,
As a closet Jesus Fan.
SIGN ON,
THE TIME IS DRAWING NEAR.
THIS IS SURELY A BANNER YEAR,
TO BE A PUBLIC WITNESS.
SIGN ON,
THE LINES ARE DRAWN AND CLEAR,
THERE'S NO STRADDLING FENCES HERE.
WE'RE GOING PUBLIC WITH THIS.
He's displaced, and unglued,
Scared that faith in God,
Could be misconstrued.
But the cross, makes him wish,
That this spine was more,
Than a school of jellyfish.
Wants a part-time God,

But she won't take a stand,
'Cause she might get tagged,
As a closet Jesus Fan.

That this spine was more,
Than a school of jellyfish.

Basically I think that the 'boys are saying here that, their friends aren't finding faith in god or following the ways of christ, but still they are and they will be proud of their faith anyway.
I am reminded of Paul's admonition in Romans 1:16 "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile".
