Tuning: D A D G A D
[Verse 1]
I've Dseen you in the markets
I've Aseen you in the streets
And Dat your political conGventions
DTalking of your crusade
ATalking of your nation
And Dother things too terrible to Gmention
And you proGclaim your Christianity
You proAclaim your love of God
You Dtalk of apple pie andG Mom
I just got one question Aand I want an answer, tell me D
Who would Jesus Abomb?
Maybe BmJesus would bomb the DSyrians
'cause Emthey're not Jews like Dhim
Maybe BmJesus would bomb the DAfghans
On some Emkind of vengeful Awhim
Maybe GJesus would drive an AM-1 tank
And Dhe would shoot SadGdam
GWho would Jesus Dbomb?
[Verse 2]
Yes, I've Dseen you on the TV
And Aon the battleships
I've Dseen you in a house up on the hill G
DAnd I've heard you talking about Amaking the world safer
And Dabout all the men you have to kill G
GAnd you speak so glibly aAbout your civilization
And Dhow you have the moral higher Gground
While halGfway around the world, your exAplosives smash the buildingsD
If you could only hear theG sound
But maybe BmJesus would sell laDnd mines
And turn Emon his electric Dchair
Maybe BmJesus would show no comDpassion
For his Emenemies in the lands way overA there
Maybe GJesus would have flown the Aplanes that Dkilled the kids in VietGnam
GWho would Jesus Dbomb?
[Verse 3]
Yes, I Dhear you shot with confidence
AAs you praise the Lord
And youD talk about this God you know soG well
You Dtalk of armageddon
And your Afinal victory
When all theD evil forces go to HellG
Well, you best Ghope you've chosen wisely
On the Aright side of the Lord
And when you Ddie your conscience it isG clear
You'd best hGope your atom bombs are Abetter than the sword
At the Dtime that your reckoning isG here
I don't think BmJesus would send Dgunships into Bethlehem
Or Emjets to raze the town of TimorDese
I don't think BmJesus would lend moDney to dictators
OrEm drive those SUDV's
And I don't think GJesus would ever have Adropped
A single Dounce of naGpalm
So tell me,G who would Jesus Dbomb?
