I TALK TO JESUS



It's like trying to light a match in the rain

Trying to find a way to explain 

I came to meet the face that graced me cable TV 

I'm his biggest fan, 'like this, him and me 



Has he gone out, is he in a meeting 

I know that you can't tell me for security reasons 



But, Mister, tell me are you one of the Saints 

Hey, maybe I could take a number and wait 



I talk to Jesus, you don't believe me 

I talk to Jesus, I know he hears me 

And I talk, talk, I talk to Jesus 



See, I've got a picture of us here in my wallet 

I'd really like to show you...

Oh, I guess I forgot it 

But, I've got this bracelet, I've got this ID 

That the people down at county gave me



I know you think I'm special, hear it all the time 

You don't have to V.I.P. me, I'm a regular guy 

I'd really like to sit and talk sometimes 

But, I'm taping Sally Jesse at five 



I talk to Jesus, you don't believe me 

I talk to Jesus, I know he hears me 

I talk to Jesus and Elvis Presley 

I talk to Jesus, the king can save me 

I talk, talk, talk, I talk to Jesus 



Have you seen the papers today 

If I could, I'd get down and pray

Tell me if the shepherds on the way 



You know Elvis Presley talks to me 

Through my school teacher 

Jon Lennon moved in down the street 

He bought the pizzeria 



And aliens control our lives 

And when we speak, they're in our minds 

And Heather Locklear is my wife 

And, Man ain't a lucky guy 



I talk to Jesus, you don't believe me 

I talk to Jesus, I know he hears me 

I talk to Jesus and Elvis Presley 

I talk to Jesus, the king can save me 

I talk, talk, talk, I talk to Jesus
