Hijacking Jesus and Using God for Your Agenda
I've got a wonderful idea
Let's hijack blessed Jesus
You know the Lord is cool
Everybody loves Jesus
We learned about Him
In our Sunday school
You know the golden rule
Don't act up or play the fool
Some folks call Christmas
By a Jewish name Yule
Most Christians prefer baptism
In an ocean or beautiful pool
This sprinkling thing is lame
Not even Scriptural you know
Seems like a bit of a vain show
Traditional, stuffy, and boring
But it makes the parents
With babies feel good
As religious practices should
Therefore how about we add
Some religion to our politics
Get everybody all hyped up
Into an emotional frenzy
Declare our opponent the enemy
Satan even and the antichrist
Set on course to take us to hell
Put fear in the hearts of citizens
Such a strategy will serve us well
Fear is a great torment you see
Therefore it will work magically
To get people to pull away
From the opposing view
If we take fear and spew
Mix some Satan and hell
In the way we look and review
Our opponents political policies
Twist with subtlety, use ambiguities
Police the airwaves cleverly
Mold the frail minds of many
With Karl Rove style propaganda
Quick sound bites send a message
Disparage and mar their visage
Yeah, like Christ on the cross
Let's use God for our agenda
Proclaim ourselves right
Religious, moral, and holy
Demonize our opponents
Tirelessly and wholeheartedly
We can self-righteously call it
The grand old Republican party.
