Jesus Wasn’t Hungry Copyright © 1994 Thomas M. Link – All Rights Reserved Siddhartha wept when he looked at his nation Jesus fed the hungry while he offered salvation Krishna taught Arjuna how to raise up the weaker But we can't hear the message If we don't hear the speaker Yeah! Rules we are defying Fools who stand there denying Hope is like food for the tired of living Food is your hope when no one is giving a damn Try to feed your spirit when your stomach is hollow Freezing in the rain when there is no sun to follow Abraham can't save you outside the temple But, I used to think like you - the answers were simple Yeah! Rules we are defying Fools who stand there denying Hope is like food for the tired of living Food is your hope when no one is giving a damn Jesus wasn't hungry Still he fed five-thousand that were And even though you might be a loser There's still hope for a cure You shouldn't live your life Like something was eating your brain But no one ever said The meaning was plain Mohammed cried out when he saw the homeless Those who are displaced and wandering aimless The Tao councils we should walk in the middle But, Lao-tse would not deny - you should give back a little Yeah! Rules we are defying Fools who stand there denying Hope is like food for the tired of living Food is your hope when no one is giving a damn -30-
