Jesus And Mary Lyrics

Cover art for Jesus And Mary lyrics by Guster

I don't have the booklet but I'm pretty sure the correct lyrics are as follows.

Come on dear friends Come gather round the mountain Drink from the fountain Tell your lovers it's time to go Tell them the tale when Sodom met Gomorrah The end days are coming The mothers send away the sons

The drummers drum and the motors hum And the trumpet players make the chords The sound wakes devil down below

Jesus and Mary and Juliet and Romeo In a movie on TV, plays seven days a week Turn off that radio we don't wanna hear about it anymore

Kill or be killed, the hunters and the hunted Seems like we're running 2000 years and still under control So let's go start a war like FDR and Eleanor These were the ways of the men before The ammunition and, soldiers and guns

Lovers love and the mourners mourn And the trumpet players blow the horn The sound wakes devil down below

Jesus and Mary and Juliet and Romeo In a movie on TV, plays seven days a week Turn off that microphone we don't wanna talk about it anymore

The sermon ends with a big Amen And the preachers take it door to door The sound shakes devil down below

Jesus and Mary and Juliet and Romeo Are in a movie on TV, plays seven days a week Turn off that telephone we don't wanna know about it anymore

So maybe let's go start a war

I love the song by the way. It's a war song. But if you've seen the music video then the interpretation is changed slightly to be about the "feud" between Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolee over Brad Pitt. I rather like that interpretation.

Thanks, I corrected it :)
