Jesus was a Jew – Lyrics

I saw the Ku Klux Klan on TV, appearing on Donahue
They’re just like you and me except
They hate all blacks and Jews
And Asians and homosexuals
Liberals and Catholics too
And feminists and communists and anyone blessed
With a slightly high IQ

They all seem so respectable
But I suspect they’re really rotten
They say they’re doing it all for Jesus
I guess they’ve just forgotten
Jesus didn’t have blonde hair and his eyes were not bright blue
Jesus was no Aryan, that’s just a picture someone drew

Jesus was a Jew
Jesus wasn’t racist
Jesus was a Jew, he was no white supremist
Jesus was a Jew

Now it’s not that you hate Asians
Or Arabs, Blacks and Jews
But if God really loved them wouldn’t they be more like you?
So you say a little prayer to send them all to Hell
Cos you don’t want to go to heaven if they’re all there as well…

Now Jesus brought the golden rule he taught us all to love
But in the name of Jesus so much wrong is done
So if you say you love him but hate anyone not like you
I hope you are aware my friend
Jesus was a Jew

He was a long haired. barefoot. they said he was a bastard. wine-swilling vagrant who hung around with prostitutes, big-nosed, unemployed, ‘n*-loving’ Jew boy, who died for me and you.
