Jesus' Brother Bob
If you haven't heard of me
I wouldn't be surprised
I bet you know my relatives
Their names will never die
My mother is a saint
And my brother is a god
But all i am is jesus' brother bob
Jesus' brother bob, jesus' brother bob
A nobody relative of the son of god
If only i'd been born just a little sooner
I'd be more than the brother of god junior
I have to take the ferry
To cross the galilee
But not my brother
No not him
He walks across for free
I finally get to work
'bout a quarter after nine
Already he's turning water into wine
Jesus' brother bob, jesus' brother bob
A nobody relative of the son of god
If only i'd been born just a little sooner
I'd be more than the brother of god junior
One day when i was home
I heard a mighty r oar
There were a thousand people
Right outside the door
Help us, jesus, help us!
Came the cheering from the mob
But then they got a look at me
Oh nuts, it's only bob
Jesus' brother bob, jesus' brother bob
A nobody relative of the son of god
If only i'd been born just a little sooner
I'd be more than the brother of god junior
He died upon the cross
I thought that i was free
Finally people would get to know
Me for me
(hi bob, hi!)
This was my big chance
To finally get ahead
The next thing you know
He's rising from the dead
Jesus' brother bob, jesus' brother bob
A nobody relative of the son of god
If only i'd been born just a little sooner
I'd be more than the brother of god junior
Everybody!
Jesus' brother bob, jesus' brother bob
A nobody relative of the son of god
If only i'd been born just a little sooner
I'd be more than the brother of god junior
A-bob
