Christ would wear cowboy boots

But christ would be fun

On those trying to run

Metal and soul

The breath of control

Christ would be free

He’d say there’s no difference

D
Between you and me
[Chorus]
            A                D
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ

        A
Toss my salad

                 D
And feed me your rice
[Verse]
A
Christ baked potatoes

A
Christ chewing gum

D
Christ without pathos

D
Saying “yum yum”

A
Christ in the middle

A
Like the monkey with balls

D
Christ picking up

D
When euphoria calls

A
Hello, dear father

A
Hello there, my son

D
How have you been?

D
Well, I gotta run

A
OK I love you

A
See you real soon

D
Maybe September

D
Maybe next June
[Chorus]
            A                D

Toss my salad

And throw wedding your rice
[Verse]
A
Christ would be careful

A
Christ would be brave

D
But Christ, he would never

D
Be anyone’s slave

A
Christ is here now

A
Christ is beyond

D
Christ would watch Rocky

D
And On Golden Pond

A
Christ would relax

A
And Christ would get mad

D
Christ would help answer

D
If judgment is bad

A
Well, no and then yes

A
Well, yes and then no

D
Nothing is easy

D
But it’s simple to glow

A
Just walk away

A
From fear and deceit

D
Never surrender

D
But never compete

A
Cheer for your brother

A
Your rival, your friend

D
And help their survival

D
To beat you again
[Chorus]
            A                D
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ

        A
Toss my salad

                 D
And feed me some rice
[Break] A D A D [Verse]
A
Give and give freely

A
All that you can

D
Help show the worried

D
What it is to be man

A
Christ would be handsome

A
Christ would be gross

D
Christ would buy butter

D
And make you some toast

A
Christ would be savage

A
But Christ would be true

D
He’d say if you want him

D
Then look inside you

A
Yes, Christ would be savage

A
But christ would be true

D
He’d say if you want him

D
Then just look in you
[Chorus]
            A                D
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ

        A
Toss my salad

                      D
And trow wedding your rice

            A                D
This is the ballad of Boogie Christ

        A
Toss my salad

                 D
And feed me your rice
