4th Avenue Jones Jesus Freak
Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me Ive divorced
I saw a man with a tat on his big fat belly
Wiggled around like marmalade jelly
Took a little while to read what it said
Tryin' to match rhythms, belly, belly
Jesus saves is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the block
And claimed he had a dream
(chorus)
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I dont really care if they label me a Jesus Freak
There ain't no disguising the truth
I ain't into hidin'(... the truth)
Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek
There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
Then the pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this jesus freak
(repeat chorus 2x)
People say Im strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say Im strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
(repeat chorus 2x)
What will people think
[what will people think]
What will people do
[what will people do]
I dont really care
[what else can I say]
There aint no disguising the truth
[jesus is the way]
