Christ would wear cowboy boots
|
Christ would have sex
|
Christ would eat pizza
|
and cut black jack decks
|
Christ would be sober
|
but Christ would be fun
|
Christ would get over
|
on those trying to run
|
Christ would love hip hop
|
Metal and soul
|
Christ would bring chaos
|
the breath of control
|
Christ would be rocking
|
Christ would be free
|
He'd say there's no difference
|
between you and me
|
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ
|
Toss my salad
|
Feed me some rice
|
|
Christ baked potatoes
|
Christ chewing gum
|
Christ without pathos
|
saying 'yum yum'
|
Christ in the middle
|
like the monkey with balls
|
Christ picking up
|
when euphoria calls
|
Hello, dear father
|
Hello there, my son
|
How have you been?
|
Well, I gotta run
|
Ok I love you
|
See ya real soon
|
Maybe September
|
Maybe next June
|
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ
|
Toss my salad
|
and throw wedding rice
|
|
Christ would be careful
|
Christ would be brave
|
But Christ, he would never
|
be anyone's slave
|
Christ is here now
|
Christ is beyond
|
Christ would watch Rocky
|
and On Golden Pond
|
Christ would relax
|
and Christ would get mad
|
Christ would help answer
|
if judgment is bad
|
Well, no and then yes
|
Well, yes and then no
|
Nothing is easy
|
but it's simple to glow
|
Just walk away
|
from fear and deceit
|
Never surrender
|
but never compete
|
Cheer for your brother
|
Your rival, your friend
|
Help their survival
|
to beat you again
|
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ
|
Toss my salad
|
and feed me some rice
|
|
Give and give freely
|
All that you can
|
and help show the worried
|
what it is to be man
|
Christ would be handsome
|
Christ would be gross
|
Christ would buy butter
|
and make you some toast
|
Christ would be savage
|
but Christ would be true
|
He'd say if you want him
|
then look inside you
|
Yes, Christ would be savage
|
but Christ would be true
|
He'd say if you want him
|
then just look in you
|
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ
|
Toss my salad
|
and throw wedding rice
|
