58 - Shopping Cart Jesus lyrics

He walks with angels in his picket<br>They tell him what to do<br>His shopping cart's filled with newspapers<br>And thirty-six discarded shoes<br>He's met with heavy skepticism<br>Messiahs don't come everyday<br><br>Shopping cart jesus<br>He wants to talk to you<br><br>One hundred blessings on his fingers<br>He can't give away<br>He feels so frustrated<br>Wasn't supposed to go down this way<br>He really wants to talk to you right now<br>Messiahs don't come everyday<br>He wears a bag on his head for a hat<br>He's got sores on his feet<br>And shit in his pants, he wonders why when he speaks<br>The word - the people walk away<br><br>Shopping cart jesus<br>He wants to talk to you<br>He wants to talk to me<br><br>So jesus stands on this corner<br>And his gospel falls to the ground<br>He's cold and he's hungry<br>And he needs a drink<br>And he knows nobody believes<br>He walks to the alley and finds salvation<br>In the form of a forty-five<br>And on his way home he'll swallow that bullet<br>To comfort him on his ride<br><br>Shopping cart jesus<br>He wants to talk to you
