Текст Rick Springfield – Jesus Was An Atheist

Jesus was an Atheist
He was a friend of mine
We hooked up in temple
Back in Roman Palestine

He said they’re going to kill me
When we go out smokin’
I thought he meant the cigarettes
But Jesus wasn’t jokin’

Mary was a pragmatist
And virgin rolled in one
One day she said to Joseph
«Joe, I think the time has come
Your boy needs to get a job
Try the laundromat»
Joseph said, «he ain’t my boy
I think we settled that»
Mary said something about
Semantics with a smile
Joe said, «I’m going drinkin’
I’ll be back in a little while»

I heard somebody say
Jesus was a Capricorn
Jesus told me once
On the day he was born
A giant super nova exploded in the sky
He said he didn’t know

We were walkin’ in the desert
Trading big hits from a bong
They said it was 40 days
It didn’t seem that long
I was trying to talk him out
Of such a pointless sacrifice
He said it was the only way
He got to paradise
I said, «You might be high»
He said I was mistaken
But watching him die
Was truly heartbreakin’

Jesus descended
I guess you’d call it that
I’m down here, baby
What the hell you lookin’ at?
I sometimes wonder if we’d stay friends
How am I to change the way
This party ends?
I know you all believe
That Jesus was divine
Jesus was an atheist
He was a friend of mine
