about

Jesus and Judas were T4T and no one talks about it!! Well, except this song I guess

lyrics

On my grimy dresser there is a bottle of blue pills
Every morning I put one beneath my tongue and hold it still
Mary has left me a note that there's breakfast on the stove
But she wakes up early next to John, and all the eggs are cold

Then Jesus comes to me again and grinning lifts his shirt
I trace the scars upon his chest, that his virgin birth
Had led him to, he was in a bind but he embraced the sacred
God knew his face and held it but it still didn't save him

AND I SEE FAR HORIZONS WHERE THE LAMBS LIE WITH THE LIONS
BUT THERE ARE POPPIES GROWING OVER WHERE MY FRIENDS ARE LYING
AND PAUL HAD AN OLD NAME BUT WE NEVER USE IT
YOU MAY CALL ME TRAITOR BUT MY LOVER CALLS ME JUDAS

HOSANNAH!  HOSANNAH!  HOSANNAH IN THE HIGHEST!
LIFT YOUR VOICES UP IN PRAISE
HOSANNAH, HOSANNAH!  HOSANNAH!

I'm upstairs breathing in the scented oil on his skin
And exactly as he taught, I take the holy spirit in
The body on my tongue and the blood dripping from my mouth
Who of us apostles, has ever been unclouded of sin?


Is it only counting silver that you ever think of me?
I who dared to love unblinking the bright son of Galilee
Upon the mountain he held all creation in his sight
And saw the killing kiss we shared in Gethsemane that night

SO DOWN THROUGH THE AGES LET MY NAME BE EVER KNOWN
THE ONE WHO GAVE HIM UP TO DEATH SO HE MIGHT ROLL AWAY THE STONE
YOU CURSE ME, BUT HE LOVED ME TOO,  HE HELD ME IN HIS ARMS
BUT I AM ONLY JUDAS ISCARIOT, HE WAS THE SON OF GOD

HOSANNAH HOSANNAH HOSANNAH IN THE HIGHEST
HOSANNAH HOSANNAH HOSANNAH HOSANNAH!

AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, HALLELUJAH AMEN!

And it's cold out here, out here alone, in the potter's field.
