Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I divorced
[PreChorus]
Yeah, I saw a man with a tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
Took me a while to catch what it said
'Cause I had to match the rhythm of his belly with my head
"Jesus Saves" is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And he claimed he had a dream
[Chorus]
What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do when they find out it's true?
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguisin' the truth, oh, oh, oh
[Instrumental]
Kamikaze, my death, it is gain
I've been marked by my Maker a peculiar display (Peculiar display)
High and lofty, they see me as weak
'Cause I won't live and die for the power that they seek
[PreChorus]
Uh, there was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
You see, the Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
'Til the king took the head of this Jesus freak
[Chorus]
What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do when they find out it's true?
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguisin' the truth, woah, oh, oh
[PostChorus]
Ain't no disguisin' me, yeah
Ain't no disguisin' the truth (Woah)
Ain't no disguisin' me (Oh)
Ain't no disguisin' the truth
[Bridge]
People say I'm strange, does that make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger?
People say I'm strange, does that make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger?
People say I'm strange, does that make me a stranger
My best friend was born in a manger?
People say I'm strange, does that make me a stranger
My best friend was born in a manger?
Come on
[Instrumental]
Yeah (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak? (Jesus freak)
What will people do when they find out it's true? (Ho, ho)
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak (Jesus freak)
There ain't no disguisin' the truth (Ain't no disguisin' the truth)
What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do when they find out it's true? (No disguisin' the truth)
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguisin' the truth, woah, oh, oh (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
[Outro]
What will people think?
What will people think? (Woah, oh, oh)
What will people do?
What will people do? (Woah, oh, oh)
I don't really care
What else can I say? (Woah, oh, oh)
'Cause there ain't no disguisin' the truth
Jesus is the way (Woah, oh, oh)
