Verse 1:
Jesus was a Capricorn
He ate organic foods
He believed in love and peace
And never want no shoes
Verse 2:
Long hair beard and sandles
And a funky bunch of friends
Recon ages made him up
If he come down again
Chorus:
'Cause everybody's got to have somebody to look down on
Who to came feel better than anytime be pleased
Someone doin' somethin' dirty decent folks can frown on
You can find nobody else and help yourself to me
Verse 3:
Egg Head's causen Red neck's cousin
Hippies fall their hair
Others laugh at straights who laugh at
Freaks who laugh at squares
Verse 4:
Some folks hate the Whites
Who hate the Blacks who hate the Clams
Most of us hate anything that
We don't understand
Chorus
