Times Square Jesus

English translation

Easy telling someone how they feel

Not as fun to tell someone you love that it's real

The house your daddy built is underwater

No use trying not to be your mother's daughter

Everybody knows that you're my weakness

You're an open secret I'm afraid

Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus

He tells me to confess before my grave

But I don't wanna be saved

She's everything that I've ever wanted

To be because she's yours, and I'm no threat, of course

I still pick up your mother from the airport

She says I should move on

You're (I'm) too much your (my) father's son

Everybody knows that you're my weakness

You're an open secret I'm afraid

Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus

He tells me to confess before my grave

But I don't wanna be saved

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Books you never read fill up your shelf

Nothing that you've said has ever helped

Using me to talk about yourself

You come off mean, but I know you mean well

Everybody knows that you're my weakness

You're an open secret I'm afraid

Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus

He tells me to confess before my grave
