Letra

When I tell you that I love you
Don't test my love
Accept my love
Don’t test my love
Cause maybe I don't love you all that much
Don't ask what kind of music I'm gonna play tonight
Just stay awhile
Hear for yourself a while
And if you must put me in a box
Make sure it's a big box
With lots of windows
And a door to walk through
And a nice high chimney
So we can burn, burn, burn everything that we don't like
And watch the ashes
Fly up to heaven
Maybe all the way to India
I'd like that
All the ancient kings came to my door
They said, "Do you wanna be an ancient king too?"
I said, "Oh yes, very much!
But I think my timing's wrong”
They said, "Time is relative!
Or did you misread Einstein?"
I said, "You really mean it?"
They said, "Whaddya think we come here for, our goddamn health or somethin’?"
Everybody's waiting for the Messiah
The Jews are waiting, Christians are waiting
Also the Muslims
It's like everybody's waiting
They've been waiting a long time
I know how I hate to wait
Like even for a bus or something
An important phone call
So I can just imagine
How darned impatient
Everybody must be getting
So I think it's time now, time to reveal myself
I am the Messiah, I am the Messiah
Yes I think you heard me right, I am the Messiah
I was gonna wait 'til next year, build up the suspense a little
Make it a really big surprise
But I could not resist
It's like when you've got a really big secret
You're just bursting to tell someone
It was sort of like that with this
And now that I've told you, I feel this great weight lifted
Doctor Nesbaum was right
He's my therapist
He said, “Get it out in the open!”
I spent ten long days in Jerusalem
Mm Jerusalem
Sweet Jerusalem
And all I ate was olives
Nothing but olives
Mountains of olives
It was a good ten days, I like olives
I like you too
So when I tell you that I love you
Don't test my love
Accept my love
Don't test my love
Cause maybe I don't love you all that much
