Go ahead and talk about him because he makes you doubt,
Because he has
denied himself the things that you can't live without.
Laugh at him behind his back just like
the others do,
Remind him of what he used to be when he comes walkin' through.
He's
the property of Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something better
You've got a
heart of stone
Stop your conversation when he passes on the street,
Hope he falls
upon himself, oh, won't that be sweet
Because he can't be exploited by superstition
anymore
Because he can't be bribed or bought by the things that you adore.
He's the
property of Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something better
You've got a heart
of stone
When the whip that's keeping you in line doesn't make him jump,
Say he's
hard-of-hearin', say that he's a chump.
Say he's out of step with reality as you try to test
his nerve
Because he doesn't pay no tribute to the king that you serve.
He's the
property of Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something better
You've got a heart
of stone
Say that he's a loser 'cause he got no common sense
Because he don't
increase his worth at someone else's expense.
Because he's not afraid of trying, 'cause he
don't look at you and smile,
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no
style.
He's the property of Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something
better
You've got a heart of stone
You can laugh at salvation, you can play Olympic
games,
You think that when you rest at last you'll go back from where you came.
But you've
picked up quite a story and you've changed since the womb.
What happened to the real you,
you've been captured but by whom?
He's the property of Jesus
Resent him to the
bone
You got something better
You've got a heart of stone | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
