Oh yeah, I was in my watering hole
With some ugly friends of mine
When the door came off its hinges
Like the cork from fizzy wineHe said, "My name is Jesus
I'm the leader of the band
Got to set up my equipment
If you boys can lend a hand'', Oh yeahWhen Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to play, alrightHe set that bandstand jumping, yeah
And he cranked it up so loud
And he moved up to the microphone
Had the attention of the crowdHe said, "My name is Jesus
Gonna to turn your head around
I'm gonna to make this easy
Got no time to mess around'', Oh yeahWhen Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to play
Oh, when Jesus came to playWhen Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to playI got no twelve disciples
And I got no cross to bear
If you thought they had me crucified
I guess you weren't there, oh yeahWhen Jesus came to play
When Jesus cameHe sang about three or four numbers, yeah
But we'd heard it all before
We boys were getting restless
No girls were moving on the floorThose parables, they were merciless, yeah
And the tables overturned
And there were no minor miracles
But false prophets they were burnedWell, maybe he was Jesus
But his hair could have used a comb
Long before he hit the last notes
We boys had all gone home, oh yeahWhen Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to play
When Jesus came to play, alrightOh, Jesus, oh Jesus is it really you?
Oh, Jesus is it really you?
Oh, Jesus is it really you?
Oh, Jesus is it really you?
