Paroles de Mean Looking Jesus

They say to turn the other cheek, but I'm flat down to bone
I try to lay me down to sleep, and I pray when I'm alone
But sleep won't come, my prayers are no more comfort from the cold
All I want is someone's hand to hold

I thought God was love, and Jesus had the most of all
But the look there in his beady eyes could make a strong man crawl
I did my best to follow - shepherd, sheep, the Father's call
But that's a mean looking Jesus on your wall

That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall
He's not gonna save you, and he won't come when you call
Hanging from that marble cross, glaring down the hall
That's a mean looking Jesus, a mean looking Jesus
That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall

The piano's on its side now, the carpet is a mess
The picture that you hung so proud, your graduation dress
But you keep calling out His name who left you in this squall
And that's a mean looking Jesus on your wall

That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall
He's not gonna save you and he won't come when you call
Hanging from that marble cross, glaring down the hall
That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall
Yes, He is mysterious, who never saved you yet
Why he has forsaken you is anybody's bet

That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall
He's not gonna save you and he won't come when you call
Hanging from that marble cross, glaring down the hall
That's a mean looking Jesus, a mean looking Jesus
That's a mean looking Jesus on your wall
