But Wait There's More

Song Meaning

Disciple builds this track around a string of deliberately silly comparisons — ordering a fish fillet when you actually want grilled cod, buying a Chevrolet when a Honda is what you're after, naming a daughter Jack — to make a blunt point about consistency. The logic runs that what you claim to want should match where you actually go, and the same holds for identity: the chorus insists that what's on the outside works its way in, and what's inside eventually shows on the outside, so who you are determines what you do. The repeated charge is to be who you are rather than pretending otherwise, with a hard line drawn between belonging to the world and belonging to God. The tone is playful and almost nursery-rhyme simple, but the argument underneath is about integrity — a life where profession and practice line up. There's no ambiguity offered and no middle ground suggested; the song treats double-mindedness as a category error, like going to a mechanic for a bad back. It closes by circling back to the same refrain, letting the plain statement about the inside and outside stand as the final word.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

If I'm wanting to eat a steak
Then I won't go eat Chinese buffet
And if I want an Italian feast
Then I won't go to a Mexican place
And if I'm wanting to drive a Honda
I won't go buy a Chevrolet
And if it comes in black and white
Then I won't go try and make it gray

What you got on the outside
Is coming in on the inside
What you got on the inside
Is coming out on the outside
Who you are affects what you do
Who you are affects what you do

Well you gotta be who you are
And don't be what you're not
If you want to be of the world
Well then you can't be of God [2x]

And if it makes your drummer sick
Then you don't eat at a pizza buffet
And if you want to eat grilled cod
Then you don't order a fish fillet
You don't go to a mechanic
When something's wrong with your back
And if you have a little girl
Then you don't go name her Jack

What you got on the outside
Is coming in on the inside
What you got on the inside
Is coming out on the outside
Who you are affects what you do
Who you are affects what you do

Well you gotta be who you are
And don't be what you're not
If you want to be of the world
Well then you can't be of God [2x]

What you got on the outside
Is coming in on the inside
What you got on the inside
Is coming out on the outside
Who you are affects what you do
Who you are affects what you do

Well you gotta be who you are
And don't be what you're not
If you want to be of the world
Well then you can't be of God [2x]
