i’m luckier than jesus

i’m luckier than jesus

i’m not god's misbegotten son

i wasn’t sent here on a mission

i didn't come to ransom anyone

i wasn't born in a stinking manger

I wasn’t nine months in a womb

though i’ve been hurt and slandered

i’ve never been a dead man in a tomb

i’m luckier than jesus

and his twelve apostles too

they tried to maim me in a circus

and made me fight bulls in peru

i never rode a donkey like a king

that never knew his life was lost

before the crowds turned into fiends

i wasn’t broken on a cross

i’m luckier than jesus

my words are not a scandal

i never healed the deaf and blind

i don’t wear bloody sandals

sexually and physically abused

i could always run and hide

i never had to live the truth

unlike him i always lied

i’m luckier than jesus

and king and ghandi too

he turned water into wine at canaan

i just entertain the well-to-do

so i’m luckier than jesus

i’m not god's misbegotten son

i wasn’t sent here on a mission

i didn't come to ransom anyone
