I Use the J-Word by The Swirling Eddies Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1996

[Verse 1]
They took us off the airwaves
Banned from MTV
For taking our religion
A bit too seriously
They told us we were fascist
'Cause we made it clear and plain
That the only trip to heaven
Is through a five-letter name

[Chorus]
When we use the J word
It drives the world insane
When we use the J word
There's power in that name
When we use the J word

[Verse 2]
Let me tell you plain and simple
Let me leave you no doubt
I could never help you
By leaving Jesus out
You say this word's offensive
To use it is a shame
But there's no stinking power
In any other name
[Chorus]
When we use the J word
It drives the world insane
When we use the J word
There's power in that name
When we use the J word

[Bridge]
Some say it as a blessing
Some say it as a curse
You can't deny the power
Of this one supernatural word
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)
Of this one supernatural word
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)
(I say the J word)

[Chorus]
When we use the J word
It drives the world insane
When we use the J word
There's power in that name
When we use the J word
It drives the world insane
When we use the J word
There's power in that name
When we use the J word
When we use the J word
