when jesus comes on that dividing day
he’s gonna carry in some and take the rest away
and that’s alright
on the day that that’s all
so you had better hear jesus
you’d better hear him call

but the follower follows whoever’s in front
he’s weak and he’s hollow and his edge is blunt
and he’s small
i bet he feels pretty tall
’cause when he says the word “jesus”
what it really means is up against the wall

and the foot soldier’s sipping his sugar water
he’s got his big idea
but he don’t know where he got her at all
and as all of his enemies fall
look at him thinking ’bout jesus
like he can hear him call
(all right)

well, it’s written in matthew 19:21
give your possessions to those
who don’t possess none at all
the big’ll be made small
how ’bout i tell you some people
don’t see it like that at all
and the masters and the moneyed and the mansion men
we’re gonna come for them
we’re gonna climb their ledges and walls
we’re gonna walk through their halls
whether they wanna receive us
whether they want it or not
(take it down)

so that’s broken you and broken me
we’re all shot down, dragged around as a clown
made to crawl
and then nailed to the wall
just like the story of jesus
back in the old bible
hey!
