Magic Marker Jesus

I’ve got some false confidence bundled in a bottle

Knock it back and swallow all of that

Which makes you swell up inside to know everything is going to be all right

Tell you before you go to bed, let those dreams winter in your head

Government blanket parental arrangement

Marching in a voice of assumed production

Where is the purpose of consumption?

Give you a dead man’s name, chant the refrain

He’ll fix everything, because he’s got the magic name

Say it in consensus, wave your hands and pretend to bless

Your magic marker Jesus, speaking in permanent ink

No need to question as we’re on the brink

We’ve go magic marker Jesus, He’ll fix everything.

I’ve got some false confidence bundled in a bottle

Knock it back and swallow all of that

Which makes you swell up inside to know everything is going to be all right

Tell you before you go to bed, let those dreams winter in your head

Let the lemmings herd and roll, just tell me you’ve got it under control

Too many kids and too many bills, taxing out thoughts to quit assuming the will

Is there to overcome that collective blank stare

No body answers and no body asks

Magic marker Jesus tell me about your magical plans

In my own voice
