The Brian Jonestown Massacre
“Ballad Of Jim Jones”
———————————————————-
I walked from New York
and back from L.A.
I lived on a mountain
and once by the bay
I bought an apartment
and slept in the hay
but there’s no place that’s softer than
(your arms)
Living today
is just getting so bad
there’s a look on your face
and it says”you’ve been had!”
you can take all my money
but don’t make me mad
cause there’s nobody meaner than
(me)
I prayed to Buddha,
to Allah,
and Jim.
I turned to jesus
and stayed there with him
I fell in deep
but I learned how to swim
now there’s no one who’s cleaner
than me or than him
