Check Out My New Jesus Lyrics

you said i'm unclean
you know i know about those things
shiver in the sun
i like my clothes when they're undone
people gather round
check out the patches on my new jeans
gather round

i ...
i just wanna be god

check out my new jesus
he talks and he walks
if you want him to
nevermind the thorns
they're only there to confuse you
people gather round
check out the patches on my new jeans
gather round

i ..
i just wanna be god

you say i'm unclean
you know i know about those things
shiver in the sun
i like my clothes when they're undone
people gather round
check out the thorns on my new jesus
gather round

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The lyrics don't really support this at all, but when I first read the title it made me think of how people take religions and make their own versions of them. Like how there could be fifty different versions of "Jesus" that people worship, all with different ideals depending on the beliefs of the worshiper.
