Lyrics The Ballad of Boogie Christ (2013) I need the saint of laughter, I need the saint of tears, I need the saint detective who can find my stolen years The Saint of Impossible Causes I need the saint of needing, I need the saint of loss -- the one who gave up wanting his heart to trash to toss The Saint of Impossible Causes" The saint of killers too afraid to killThe Saint of Impossible CausesI need the saint of healing, I need the saint of health — I shot the saint of money, beat up the saint of wealthThe Saint of Impossible CausesChrist would wear cowboy boots, Christ would have sex, Christ would eat pizza and cut blackjack decksThe Ballad of Boogie ChristChrist would be rocking, Christ would be free, he'd say there's no difference between you and me.The Ballad of Boogie ChristChrist would be careful, Christ would be brave, but Christ he would never be anyone's slave.The Ballad of Boogie Christ'' External links Joseph Arthur Category:Singer-songwriters from the United States Category:Rock singers Category:Guitarists from the United States Category:Painters from the United States Category:Designers Category:1971 births Category:Living people Category:People from Akron
