There was a man from Allentown
who fed his son to death
He calmly watched him gorge himself
until his final breath
And there he stood surprised and shocked
above his tiny frame
he said "I bear no blame for this,
I only share his name"
There was a man from Nazareth
the fools in war proverse
they forced an image on his flesh
to brand on mugs and t-shirts
They say one day he'll spring to life
to smile and clear your name
so nail yourself upon the cross
and hang your head in shame
Forever
this is forever
this is forever
this is forever
this is forever
