Song language: English
Jesus Was a Democrat |
| Jesus Christ didn’t have blue eyes or blond hair |
| He looked just like all those people that you want to kill |
| Spin your hell into a heaven you can sell |
| Make it look like California with a bible belt |
| Jesus didn’t look like the boy next door |
| Unless you live in Palestine |
| I wonder what you mean by the golden rule |
| I think it is a scary play on words |
| I wonder what they taught you back in Sunday school |
| I bet you think of him |
| As a nice clean long haired Republican, nah |
| He would be all locked up in Guantanamo Bay |
| If he were alive today |
| He would have been a revolutionary |
| Wanted by the CIA |
| I picture him in all the wrong places |
| Finding diamonds in the dirt |
| A star of David tattoo |
| And a Che t-shirt |
| Jesus Christ was a left wing radical Jew |
| Murdered by people like you |
| If Jesus was a Democrat like the bible says he was |
| I don’t think he’s going to want to take the blame |
| For all the awful things you say and do in his name |
| If Jesus was alive he would be sad to see |
| That it is no different than it used to be |
| Someday he’s going to call you out |
| I am pretty god damned sure … |
| He is going to be angry |
| He is going to be angry |
| You want to know what I think… |
| I think Jesus would have been a card carrying liberal |
| If he was a young man born in the USA |
| He would not be «fiscally conservative» |
| And he wouldn’t vote for John McCain |
| All those so called Christians that you see on TV |
| Maybe they scare Jesus like they scare me |
| Kick you the hell out of my temple too |
| Too many elephants in the room |
| If Jesus was a Democrat like the bible says he was |
| I don’t think he’s going to want to take the blame |
| For all the awful things you people do and say in his name |
| If Jesus was alive today he would be sad to see |
| That it is no different than it used to be |
| Someday he’s going to call you out |
| I am pretty god damned sure… |
| He is going to be… mad |
| He is going to be angry |
| He is going to be… mad |
| He is going to be… mad |
| You say Jesus loves the little children |
| And I say I know that’s true |
| I say he loves all the Muslims and the Jews |
| All the addicts and the porn stars too |
| You say Jesus died to save us all from a fiery hell |
| I say Jesus died to save us |
| Save us from ourselves |
| Will you save me from myself? |
| If Jesus was a liberal like the red letters say he was |
| I know he would have big love for all the killers and the racists |
| And the bullies in this world |
| If Jesus was alive today |
| And you had a chance to meet him face to face |
| I’m pretty God-damned sure that you and your friends |
| Would find some way to kill him all over again |
| You would kill him all over again |
| Again and again and again |
| Just like you always do |
| You do just what you always do |
