about

Things finally came to a head one head-banging day and we had to tell our followers the truth:

WE ARE NOT JESUS--at least not this time around!
Hence the song. (And then came the insurance waiver...)

Also we love "The Velvets": in particular "All Tomorrow's Parties", which we sometimes covered, (and I wanted to sing at my mother's funeral...) But we are not them also...

lyrics

I’m Not Jesus

I’m not Jesus
I bleed red

I’m not Jesus
I’m not even dead

I’m not Jesus
I don’t preach

I’m not Jesus
I don’t have his reach

But I have risen
And you are forgiven

I’m not Buddha
I feel all the feels

I”m not Buddha
This world is too real

I’m not Krishna
I”m not even blue

I’m not Krishna
I really did love you

But IIIIIIII have risen
And youuuuuuu are forgiven

God Bless The Freaks
Strengthen the Weak.

I am over all of this shit
And baby this it.

I’m not Jesus
I ain’t coming back

I’m not Jesus
I won’t pick up your slack

I’m not Jesus
I won’t heal your pain

I’m not Jesus
I’m not taking the blame

But IIIIIIII have risen
And youuuuuuu are forgiven

And weeeee have risen
And weeeeee are forgiven.
