Jesus at 25
Hit Me TV Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jesus was 25
He never had nothing to do
He spoke onto his wife
He said baby I'll break you some food
I can't live without you
You never tell me what to do

Jesus was 25

He never wore decent shoes
But he got them for his wife
He said baby I'm taking you out
I can't live without you
Oh baby you never tell me what to do

Some or other way I'll be
I'll walk on water
I will make believe
Some or other way I'll see
But really all I need
Really all I need is
Really all I need is for you to believe in me

Jesus was 25
Already he was losing some screws
He told it to his wife
And said I'm sorry for fucking this up
I can't live without you
Oh baby you never tell me what to do

Some or other way I'll be
But really all I need

Really all I need is
Really all I need is for you to believe in me
