Save me Jesus

Written in 2013

Save me Jesus from your followers.
Save me Jesus from your friends.
I‘m just a diver who stayed too long
save me Jesus from the bends.
Save me Jesus from your followers.
Save me Jesus from the legislators
who evoke your name in vain.
Save me Jesus from your followers
Save me Jesus from the legislators
who are driving me insane.
They say they don’t want gay marriage
do they think all marriages should be sad
that smiling same sex couples are just bad?
Save me Jesus from your followers.
Save me Jesus from your friends.
Save me from the Right to Lifers
I just want to make amends
and ensure some simple rights
that’s why I’ve got them in my sights.
Abortion, euthanasia and ending poverty
should be introduced with utmost priority.
Ending war and promoting human rights
and with songs and happiness scale the heights
not pompous piety administering the last rights
but joy and justice in our sights.
