Lyrics

When Jesus comes on that dividing day He's gonna carry in some and take the rest away And that's alright On the day that that's all So you had better hear Jesus You'd better hear him call But the follower follows whoever's in front He's weak and he's hollow and his edge is blunt And he's small I bet he feels pretty tall 'Cause when he says the word "Jesus" What it really means is up against the wall And the foot soldier's sipping his sugar water He's got his big idea But he don't know where he got her at all And as all of his enemies fall Look at him thinking 'bout Jesus Like he can hear him call (All right) Well, it's written in Matthew 19:21 Give your possessions to those Who don't possess none at all The big'll be made small How 'bout I tell you some people Don't see it like that at all And the masters and the moneyed and the mansion men We're gonna come for them We're gonna climb their ledges and walls We're gonna walk through their halls Whether they wanna receive us Whether they want it or not (Take it down) So that's broken you and broken me We're all shot down, dragged around as a clown Made to crawl And then nailed to the wall Just like the story of Jesus Back in the old Bible Hey!
