Jesusland - Ben Folds

Jesusland Lyrics

Take a walk, out the gate you go and never stop
Past all the stores and wig shops
Quarter in a cup for every block
And watch the buildings grow smaller as you goDown the tracks, beautiful McMansions on a hill
That overlook a highway with riverboat casinos
And you still have yet to see a soulJesusland
JesuslandTown to town, broadcast to each house
They drop your name but no one knows your face
Billboard's quoting things you'd never say
You hang your head and prayFor Jesusland
JesuslandMiles and miles and the sun goin' down
Pulses glow from their homes
You're not alone, lights come on
As you lay your weary head on their lawnParking lots cracked and growing grass
You see it all from offices to farms
Crosses flying high above the malls
A longer walkThrough Jesusland
Jesusland
