Chocolate Jesus — текст песни (Tom Waits)

Don`t go to church on Sunday
Don`t get on my knees to pray
Don`t memorize the books of the Bible
I got my own special way
Bit I know Jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more

I fall on my knees every Sunday
At Zerelda Lee`s candy store

Well it`s got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Keep me satisfied

Well I don`t want no Anna Zabba
Don`t want no Almond Joy
There ain`t nothing better
Suitable for this boy
Well it`s the only thing
That can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate Jesus
Can satisfy my soul

(Solo)
When the weather gets rough
And it`s whiskey in the shade
It`s best to wrap your savior
Up in cellophane
He flows like the big muddy
But that`s ok
Pour him over ice cream
For a nice parfait

Well it`s got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me

Well it`s got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Keep me satisfied
