Jim White - When Jesus Gets a Brand New NameLyrics

Damn them dogs is really smart Think I'd better lose the snowshoes Thought the skid marks on the road'd throw them off, But damn them dogs is smart And on Devil's Island of the heart, You can't afford to make a big mistake You gotta plan your jail break carefully Very carefully! And them crickets chirping in my hair They're about to drive me smack insane. I don't know quite who put 'em there But everytime I hear 'em it sound just like; When Jesus gets a brand new name! When Jesus gets a brand new name! Now I'm hiding in a funky shadow I see a TV show through the window there's lawyers riding in a speedboat They're solving cases on the ocean. I'm going over the waterfalls I'm a lamb to the slaughter ya'll Better duck because that flying thing Is coming back this way! I tell you what the hay! Friggin A! A certified genius couldn't do it better. You disagree? Well, that's okay, we'll notify you with a letter! When Jesus gets a brand new name! When Jesus gets a brand new name! Golden dust, golden bones, golden opportunities. You flush 'em all down the rusty drain Better laugh, boy, before you feel the pain. And get yourself good and saved, Make sure that you are well behaved; You should part your hair, You should shine your shoes, You should say your prayers, You should pay your dues you do heart surgery with a hammer Then you lock 'em all up in the gospel slammer 'Till there's nothing left for this corpse to say Except "Drag my stinking butt away!" When Jesus gets a brand new name! When Jesus gets a brand new name! My friends; Cross your fingers, cross your hearts, 'Cause they've ripped that sucker clean apart And don't catch my whole guitar on fire As you embrace the lips of my wild desire. Now you're messing with my superstition Hey, what about the Inquisition?! Yeah I like 'em big, like 'em chunky, I like 'em pasty faced, like a superjunky. You steal the water from the well of love, It'll sit in your tummy like O.J.'s glove So don't you give me none Of that dadgummed shango, 'Cause I know that it takes two to tango! When Jesus gets a brand new name! When Jesus gets a brand new name!
