They would crucify him



Oh, they would crucify a Jesus, man,
when he says feed the poor before tax cuts,
when he says "What that old script says, I pan,"
what right-wing preachers preach he just rebuts.

Oh, they would crucify a Jesus, dude.
"A communist and secret Muslim, he,"
the Tea Party would say as they collude
with FOX News-manufactured 'Liberty'.

Oh, they would crucify a Jesus, yo,
Republicans who like to say his name,
while bashing gays and raking in the dough
from Corporate Polluters Hall of Fame.

Oh, they would crucify a Jesus, dawgs.
They'd nail him up on some of Lincoln's logs!

  2. True words, I'm afraid. Like the t-shirt says "Lord, Save Me From Your Fan Club" And you've got the repetition thing down.
