john wesley harding - the original miss jesus (alternate version) lyrics

[verse 1]
“hey you,” she said
“i think that i have something in my eye”
and she posed beneath the standard lamp
her clothes waved goodbye
and she was
naked as a true apology
for something she hadn’t yet done
he said, “did i tell you the one about
the original miss jesus?”
the original miss jesus
[verse 2]
“born before
her more famous little brother mister christ
sure, there were miraclеs
but out of the public eye
and thеy never
thought even to have her crucified
so she wrote some novels, then she died
only her family cried for her
the original miss jesus”
the original miss jesus
the original miss jesus
the original miss jesus

[bridge]
“and then he came
the one they wrote all the books about
the king of the rock opera
the great guru of doubt”

[verse 3]
“stop!” she said
“jesus could have been a boy or girl
history would still have been unkind
if he had been a her
anyway
just watch me turn this beer into air
as for redemption value, i don’t care
but if you want, i’ll even pretend to be
the original miss jesus”
the original miss jesus
the original miss jesus
the original miss jesus
[outro]
so she was
the saviour
of that sad and lonely room
the original miss jesus
the original miss jesus
