From the Jeffrey Lewis and The Jrams Tour album
2000 years on a wooden stage
I'm gonna shed my tears for Jesus' sake
Iron chain, electric chair
13 steps of the (??) stair
And the magic guy, the holy ghost
Is not the one who needs sympathy the most
A cross of wood, that ain't no good
But it was all justified and lawful
So much of human genius usually goes
Towards being awful
And the magic guy, the holy ghost
Is not the one who needs sympathy the most
So much human wit and skill
Just to conquer and hurt and kill
Your pain and your bad luck is just the same
As all the hurt people who never got famous
And the magic guy, the holy ghost
Is not the one who needs the sympathy the most
The tears for the magic son
Who rose to heaven from the dead
But the magic guy is not the one
Who probably really needs them shed
You gotta think real hard for the normal man
You gotta help your sister every day you can
Cause they murdered Jesus and they murdered more
On the next day after, and the days before
And the magic guy, the holy ghost
Is not the one who needs the sympathy the most
He's the son of god, so that's why I say
He's got the better odds of ending up okay
It takes a lot to laugh, it takes a little to cry
We got a life to share 'til the day we die
And the magic guy, the holy ghost
Is not the one who needs sympathy the most |
