"JESUSLAND" on national radio again last night.

[David Ippolito]

I was the LIVE guest on something called the Joey Reynolds Show last night, and I got to do "JesusLand" on national radio again. After hearing the track, Reynolds decided not to go to a call-in format, which disappointed me a little.

But, the email has already started comin' in at my website. It's fascinating how the people who dig the song, rrreeeeeallllly dig the song, and the people that get p*ssed off all sound exactly the same.

If you haven't heard it or downloaded it for yourself already, here's the song:

I want the whole country to have it for FREE

Pass it around.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks for helping to send this tune around.

9. Hey New York...

If you're anywhere around NYC, I'm definitely gonna do "JesusLand" and "Tired of Being Lied To" and "I Love the Company" and "Where'dat Money Go" as part of that concert tomorrow night.

Columbia Artists Hall (CAMI HALL)...right across the street from Carengeie Hall on West 57th Street.

If you show up, say "Hey" after the show!

4. That one's a keeper.

I'll be sending it around.

[David Ippolito]

5. Send it EVERYWHERE!

I hope somebody finds a way to get it in front of Bill O'Reilly, or Limbaugh and their fans. I'd kinda hoped to poke 'em in the eye with it.

Thanks.

6. Congrats, bro..

You deserve the praise you are getting w/ the song; great job..

[David Ippolito]

8. Takin' some sh*t, too...

Kinda fun though.

But, most of the negative mail doesn't make much sense. They either don't get the song, take it the wrong way... or, it hits to f*ckin' close to home.

I wrote it specifically to confuse alot of people who just don't usually stop and THINK or reason... and , it's working pretty well, I guess.

But, yeah... most of the people who are sending email are behind it.

Thanks for your internet help, too, Enigmatic...

7. Hey I heard this song on Mike Malloy last night!

It's good btw.

[David Ippolito]

10. DU sent it to Malloy...

Thanks to someone here at DU, Malloy was the first to get "JesusLand" and give it air time a few weeks ago... the very first day it was released.

I forgot who sent it to him.

But, thanks.

14. Lyrics...

INTRO:
I’m a new breed of American with quite a lot to say
As patriotic and religious as ya get
I’m a brand new kinda Christian in the good ol’ USA
And, you don’t what to make of me quite yet
You liberal folks are jus' too analytical
Yer called the “intellectual elite”
You like to use big words like… hypocritical
Just because my words and actions hardly meet

KICK IT:

Welcome to Jesusland
Where we made George Bush the president, so now we can command
That the people of this country live exactly as we've planned
Welcome to Jesusland.

Look on any dollar bill. It says “In God We Trust”
So we ask his help in everything we do
Yeah, we got freedom of religion, I reckon that means that we must
Tolerate the atheist and Jew.
But, JESUS is the man, and our salvation
And, very war we wage is in his name.
We think his Bible shoulfd be taught in every nation.
And, we’ll bomb anyone who doesn’t feel the same

Welcome to Jesusland
Where we all Love Thy Neighbor, if thy neighbors understand
We won't let too many Mexicans across the Rio Grande
Welcome to Jesusland

Now, W’s a married man and Laura is his wife
Of their family values and beliefs we sing
They oppose woman’s right to choose because they’re both "pro life"
An execution… well, that’s a nuther thing
George goes to church where he sings from a hymnal
Cuz Jesus once protected him from harm.
But, if you’re a convicted death row criminal
He's been known to stick a needle in your arm.

Welcome to Jesus land
Where that "Moses-guy" says, “Try to pry
This rifle from my hand!”
The Prince of Peace don’t want my AK-47 to be banned
Welcome to Jesusland

Rush Limbagh is the people’s voice ‘cuz we all like to listen.
He's a moral and real straight-talkin’ guy
Who says, crack smokin’ addicts… should all go straight to prison
We don’t care that when he said it he was high
O'Reilly is another moral beacon
That married man "got no spin in his zone!"
He's always right... pol-i-tickly speakin'
Once he's finished talkin' dirty on the phone!

Welcome to Jesusland
Where we see the Lord in every Walmart, Sears and Disneyland
While some may turn the other cheek, we draw lines in the sand.
Welcome to Jesusland

In JesusLand, EVERYONE knows better
But it's not a state you liberal folks can find
Y'see, it's not a state that's red... or, even redder
Naw, JesusLand is just a state of mind!

Jesusland is here to stay
Don’t judge me by the way I live, jus' live by what I say.
It’s Jesus’ will to build a neo-Christian USA
Welcome to Jesusland!

Welcome to Jesusland!
