Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I never really understood religions Except it seems a good reason to kill Everybody's got their own conceptions And you know they always will [Chorus 1] These days are needles under my skin Jesus shooting heroin [Verse 2] If there are priests at your party And you're playing cards that are numbered And you got no reason to think it Until your chances are uncovered [Chorus 2] Tell me that I got to believe in Jesus shooting heroin [Bridge] The police in New York City Chased a boy right through the park In a case of mistaken identities They put a bullet through his heart [Verse 3] I met Mary on the corner with the streetlights She asked me if I'd come up to her room I told her that I didn't have no money She said she had to leave pretty soon [Chorus 3] I decided that I would go in Jesus shooting heroin
