Jesusland Lyrics
by Ben Folds
Here's Jesusland by Ben Folds. From 'Songs for Silverman.'
INTRO (opening piano bit)
s2
Take a walk, out the gate you go and never stop
Past dollar stores and wig shops
Quarter in a cup for every block
And watch the buildings grow
Smaller as you go
Down the tracks, beautiful McMansions on a hill
That overlook a highway
Riverboat casinos and you still
Have yet to see a soul
Jesuslaaaaaaaaand (x2)
s2
Town to town, broadcast to each house they drop your name
But no-one knows your face
Billboards quoting things you'd never say
You hang your head and pray
For
Jesuslaaaaaaaaand (x2)
Miles and miles, and the sun's going down
Pulses glow, from their homes
You're not alone
Lights come on, as you lay your weary head
On their lawn
MIDDLE- G D Am C D (x2)
Parking lots, cracked and growing grass you see it all
From offices to farms
Crosses flying high above the malls
Along the walk through
Jesuslaaaaaaaaand (x2)
END
