this boy. for just, uh, six thousand dollars, we can heal this boy!"

and he told me you're gonna die
unless you buy my holy water
check, cash, or a money order
this is true, don't question me
i'll even send you shit for free
it's only ten bucks for the call
and i'll send a prayer, no charge at all
put your lips up to the screen
close your eyelids and intervene
your lips to mine, now send the cash
and while you're there, you can kiss my ass
take your paycheck and send me half
and i'll send you god's autograph
i'll get allah's and buddha's too
even zeus, i don't give a fuck who
just send me that money
"would you like to healed, little jonathan? (yes, reverand).

even though i fucked a hooker
took your baby girl and shook her
you still buy everything i sell
and i'm living well
see you in hell!
"four-thousand, eight-hundred, nine-hundred, five thousand
hallalujah, you did it brothers and sisters. are you ready, jonathan?
(yes, reverand) lord almighty, we've met your price, give me the
healing power, i can feel it, lord! roomy loomy lama noma noomy!
this boy is healed. (really?) now to the naked eye, it would appear
that this boy has not been healed, but i can assure you, this boy's
spirit has been healed. inside this tangled, mangled frame is a healed
little boy. his spirit is healed, hallalujah!"
