Heaven on Their Minds

My mind is clearer now

At last - all too well - I can see where we all soon will be

If you strip away - the myth from the man

You will see where we all soon will be

You've started to believe the things they say of you

You really do believe this talk of God is true

And all the good you've done - will soon get swept away

You've begun to matter more - than the things you say,

Listen Jesus - I don't like what I see

all I ask is that you listen to me - and remember

I've been your right-hand man - all along

You have set them all on fire

They think they've found the new Messiah

And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong

Nazareth your famous son - should have stayed a great unknown-

like his father carving wood - He'd have made good

Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best

He'd have caused nobody harm - no one alarm

Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?

- Don't you see we must keep in our place?

We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down we are?

I am frightened by the crowds

for we are getting much too loud

and they'll crush us if we go too far - if we go too far

Listen Jesus to the warning I give;

Please remember that I want us to live

but it's sad to see our conscience weaken if we don't free our own

All your followers are blind - too much heaven on their minds

It was beautiful, but now it's sour

Yes it's all gone sour - all gone sour

won't you listen to me? Jesus... Jesus
