Jim Jones

Brother Jim was born a man of mystery Mother Lynn claimed Jim would save the world someday Little Jim saved souls of cats who'd found their end By holding little funerals honoring what he'd took from them Moving on from small town Indiana College then the capital called his name When his politics made the blacklist He fled to church to be For people who need people who might need Jim Took a page from another age Called for apostolic integration In a time when schools never colored outside the lines People came, some even followed Hoping to find family beneath his wings of deliverance But then, dead cats again Did he would he do before what he did before again The Rainbow family moved to California A golden state there would unfold A parlour trick meant to suck The needy, open and/or brokenhearted in Numbers grew as fast as spirits risen Even politicians loved the people's temple Jim's god opened what was once kept closed to him One step closer to the right hand of the father One more move to prove he'd rule them all Moved the family down to guyana Built a paradise in his name Take it down for translation Take it down for salvation Take it down for translation Take it down for salvation Join.
