lyrics

a suburban messiah
took the road less desired
took a left past judea
two hands held deep in prayer

a watchful messiah
didn't wallow in the mire
blessed the streets where he lived
holy water well rinsed

dressed in white by your side
a little undesired
there they go from the unbemused
he'll watch them from the pews

turns the water into beer
just dont expect a share
son of god, king of man
theyre not the biggest fan

a suburban messiah
took control of the choir
made them sing something pestilent
i recall from the testament

a confident messiah
threw the bible in the fire
started writing something new
based on recent news

oh sweet mother mary
awoke there on the prarie
heard the deeds of her son
got ready left at once

a runaway messiah
caught a glimpse down the wire
took a train to the mines
left this world far behind
