I <3 iTunes

jenkFriday I watched The Book of Daniel & the latest The Wittenburg Door arrived. Between the too I started thinking of an ancient Ray Stevens 45 I once had...and it turned out iTunes had it too:
As for The Book Of Daniel, overall I liked it. It's funny and soapy and reminds me of "Six Feet Under". I loved the Jesus character. I also expect it to be canceled due to a combination of boycott, protest, and lack of interest. For evidence to the first two I note the AFA convinced stations in 2 states not to show the premiere & that the show has an Episcopal priest supporting his elder son's gayness, his Chinese son's dating whites, and his own addiction to codeine. The family is also memebers of the 'elite' in that they have a maid and the wife apparently inherited the house and - presumably - enough money to hire the maid. As for lack of interest, Friday night? C'mon.
Woke up this mornin'
Turned on my TV set
There in livin' color was somethin' I can't forget
This man was preachin' at me..
Yeah.. layin' on the charm
Asking me for $20 with $10,000 on his arm
He wore designer clothing
And a big smile on his face
Selling me salvation while they sang Amazing Grace (Amazing Grace)
Asking me for money
When he had all the signs of weath
Almost wrote a check out.. yeah.. but then I asked myself…
Would he wear a pinky ring,
Would he drive a fancy car
Would his wife wear furs and diamonds,
Would his dressing room have a star
If he came back tomorrow... there's something I'd like to know
Would Jesus wear a rolex on His television show?
Would Jesus be political
If he came back to earth?
Have his second home in Palm Springs..
Yeah.. but try to hide his worth?
Take money from those poor folks when he comes back again
And admit He's talkin' to all those preachers who say they've been a-talkin' to him
Just ask yourself [repeat chorus]
