Believe
I'm no Jesus but I'm close to him,
we talk all the while.
I'm no Jesus but he comforts me,
we walk side by side.
On the water we walk religiously.
On the water we talk seriously.
The pool is dirty but I'm feeling clean,
love is the drug.
I need a rush and then he comes to me,
he gives me a hug.
Fill my pockets with stones but I can't sink.
Help me if you believe.
[Ain't no Jesus around here anymore,
deserted the game.
How come he didn't know that love was a whore?
Hope to see him again.

My first exposure to Gus Gus was this song, and music video. The video was really cool, with the swimmers, and the song itself was a very engaging danceable beat.
The religious components of the song were a little mind-bending, but then, so is religion itself.
This song invariably leads me to "Is Jesus Your Pal?", which is also a beautiful song, but for different reasons.
What in fact does the singer believe? Is this a case of a "personal Jesus", which resides in all of us who believe?
Yea, Polyester Day is supercool, but "Believe" & "Why?" are the real stunners. Amazing album on the whole, under-appreciated as most great art tends to be, but not by all of Us. Excellence.
