Lyrics
Well Jesus Christ was an only child He went down to the river And he drank and smiled And his dad was oh-so-mad Should have insured that planet Before it crashed Working real hard to make internet cash Work your fingers to the bone sitting on your ass I know now what I knew then But I didn't know then what I know now Penny found out as her hair was styled Well you should hide you kids While the dogs run wild Jesus Christ was an only child He went down to the river And he drank and smiled And his dad was oh-so-mad Should have killed that little fucker Before he even had Well Jesus Christ was an only child He went down to the river And he drank and smiled And his dad was oh-so-mad Should have insured that planet Before it crashed Working real hard to make internet cash Work your fingers to the bone sitting on your ass Penny found out as her hair was styled Well you should hide you kids While the dogs run wild I know now what I knew then But I didn't know then what I know now Well I know now what I knew then, yeah I know now what I knew then, yeah I know now what I knew then But I didn't know then what I know now
