The band describes this rollicking psychedelic garage rock track as a “testament to the coming of the black messiah.”
The liner notes contain a note that “imagine[s] him something like a mix between Ol' Dirty Bastard, Jack Johnson, and Barak Obama.”
The band also references Obama on the last track...
[Verse 1]
It don't matter what they say
You can't be the Jack Johnson of today
Big Black Baby Jesus on the way
Come on, the Jesus of today
Come on...
[Chorus]
Do it
Do everything
Big Black Jesus on the way
It don't matter what they say
[Verse 2]
Put Black on the holy radio
Come back, where you can't fail
If you want it for someone to pay-o
Come on, you need the coffee and the mayo
Come on...
[Chorus]
Do it
Do everything
Big Black Jesus on the way
It don't matter what they say
Jack Johnson of today
Yeah!
