Jesus shaves, joins corporate america, get's laid off, grows his beard back, stays up late, sees a tv commercial, about being a welder, makes a phone call. Jesus shaves, goes on an interview, does real well, he's got a way with people, two years on he's still an apprentice, but not for long, it's graduation. Jesus shaves, put's his best suit on, get's a certificate, makes it official, now he's a welder, wears a big helmet, and twice a week now, Jesus shaves. Blessed are the ones who make peace, blessed are the ones who scrape by. Blessed are the ones living holy lives, and here's to the rest of us who try. jesus shaves on sunday
Morning, decides to go fishing after
Going to church, it's wintertime, so he
Walks on water, digs a whole in the ice
And fishes for perch. jesus shaves the
Scales off the fishes, has a few fillets
And a couple of brewskies, thinks about
The girl, magdelena, in payroll, decides that
He's gonna ask her out for dinner. jesus
Shaves for work on monday, goes to the
Office, gathers his courage, he's still
Not sure just how he's gonna ask her,
Walks over to her desk and sees a picture
Of her boyfriend. Blessed are the ones who make peace, blessed are the ones who scrape by. Blessed are the ones living holy lives, and here's to the rest of us who try. she says hello, how are you this morning?
He asks if she knows if it'll snow or rain.
She notices him looking at the picture on
Her desktop, she says it's her cousin who's
Passed away. he say's that's great, she
Looks at him funny, he says he didn't mean
That, she says it's okay, and then she smiles
And they both start laughing, and that's
When he knows it's his lucky day. jesus
Shaves, smiling in the mirror, magdelena
Is saying that they gotta hurry, they'll be
Late for work and the school bus is coming,
But their daughter likes watching as
Jesus shaves. Blessed are the ones who make peace, blessed are the ones who scrape by. Blessed are the ones living holy lives, and here's to the rest of us who try.
