Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tim Tebow to Jesus Christ
Can’t win by myself but with your help I might
(Ten) Tim Tebow (Nine) to Jesus Christ (Eight)
(Seven, Six) Commencing 4th (Five) down hut hut hike (Four)
(Three, Two) Snap the football (One) and (Touchdown) may God’s love be with me
This is Jesus Christ to Tim Tebow
Don’t you know my day of rest is Sunday
And I’m sick of watching all these Broncos Games
I hear that you play New England next week
Dude you're on your own
Brady is too good and I’ve got better things to do!
Though I’ve passed 316 yards there’s still two games to go
If I want to make it to the Super Bowl
And show everyone on Earth how to Tebow
Tim Tebow to Jesus Christ
The Broncos won we’re still alive
C’mon everyone Tebow
C’mon everyone Tebow
C’mon everyone Tebow
C'mon everyone Tebow
Fallon Jimmy's song "Tebowie" is a parody of David Bowie's song "Space Oddity," with the lyrics reimagined for American football quarterback Tim Tebow. The lyrics depict Tebow reaching out to Jesus Christ for divine assistance on the field during crucial moments in the game. The chorus, "Tim Tebow to Jesus Christ," symbolizes the deep faith that Tebow was known for, as he often knelt on the field in prayer, thanking God for his success.
The first verse describes the quarterback's reliance on Jesus Christ to help him win. His trust in his faith is exemplified in the lines, "Can't win by myself but with your help I might." The countdown to 4th down, highlighted by Tebow's famous Bible verse reference "3:16," is a popular reference to his Christian beliefs. The line "may God's love be with me" also shows his dedication to his religion and his belief that God will help him on the field.
The second verse takes a more comical turn, with Jesus Christ speaking back to Tebow, lamenting the fact that he can't even rest on Sunday due to Tebow's constant prayers for help on the football field. The humor here comes from the depiction of a deity who is annoyed with a football player's requests for divine intervention during games.
Overall, the song seeks to poke fun at Tim Tebow's deeply ingrained religiosity while also celebrating his success on the field. The song is a lighthearted satire that showcases Fallon's comedic talents and musical skills.
