I SAW
THE GARAGE SALE
PULLED UP
IN THE YARD
FOUND A STATUE
OF JESUS
IT WAS
EIGHT FEET TALL
HE HELD OUT HIS ARMS
AND HE SEEMED
ALL ALONE
SO I LOADED HIM UP
AND I DROVE HIM HOME
OUT BY
THE DRIVEWAY
HE LOOKS DOWN
THE STREET
LONG HAIR
AND SANDALS
MADE OF REBAR
AND CONCRETE
I PAINTED HIM WHITE
WITH A LONG
PURPLE ROBE
HE'S A ROCK OF AGES
ON A GRAVEL ROAD
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
STANDIN' TALLER
THAN A TREE
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
A BIGGER MAN
THAN YOU OR ME
4 BAR BREAK
I THOUGHT LOSIN'
MY JOB
WAS THE END OF
THE WORLD
TILL MY BEST PAL
WENT OFF WITH
MY BEST GIRL
I FELT SUICIDAL
WITH NO REAL FRIENDS
SO I WALKED OUTSIDE
WITH A ROPE
IN MY HAND
OUT BY THE STATUE
THERE'S A
BIG OAK TREE
SO I STOOD ON
HIS SHOULDERS
AND I COUNTED
TO THREE
I HAD EVERY
INTENTION
OF BUYING THE FARM
BUT WHEN
I JUMPED OFF
HE CAUGHT ME
IN HIS ARMS
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
STANDIN' TALLER
THAN A TREE
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
A BIGGER MAN
THAN YOU OR ME
I WANTED TO RETURN
THE FAVOR TO HIM
'CAUSE I NEVER HAD
A MORE SOLID FRIEND
SO I PLANTED
SOME FLOWERS
ALL AROUND HIS FEET
AND I BOUGHT HIM
A FLOCK OF CERAMIC
SHEEP
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
STANDIN' TALLER
THAN A TREE
HE'S AN EIGHT
HUNDRED POUND JESUS
A BIGGER MAN
THAN YOU OR ME
HE'S A BIGGER MAN
THAN YOU OR ME
YEAH
