Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Yesterday while walking
Beneath an overpass
I saw the figure of Jesus
Standing barefoot on broken glass

His beard was graying
Smell of urine filled the air
Asking if I had some change,
Anything that I could spare
And do, da do do, do do do do, da do, da do do, da do

Emaciated
His shaking fists balled up
Influenza and pneumonia
Begging God to take his cup

So different from his pictures
Breathing air through yellow tubes
Jesus Christ, dying of AIDS,
Can look right through you
And do, da do do, do do do do, da do, da do do, da do

And all have hated,
Crucified and walked away
Savior of the prostitutes,
Drunkards, rapists, and the gays
Do, da do do, do do do do, da do, da do do do

Under Bridges,
With hands raised
From the ghettos
They praise His name
Broken, crippled
In the dark of night
Raise your voices
To Jesus Christ x2

Hallelujah x16
