A prayer/how do we fix africa? Lyrics by Bo Burnham

Words Words Words

2010

Let us pray
Oh, uh, please
Don't feel like you can't participate if you're not Christian
Cause this is a prayer for all faiths, so
Dear Jesus of Nazareth
First of all, I'd like to thank you for calling yourself Jesus of Nazareth, it's sort of like the Lord of the Rings or something
"I am Jesus of Nazareth, son of Orflec the butcher"
We know, Lord
From John 3:16, that you so loved the world that you sent your only son to die for us, your only son
But at the same time, we're all your children, so in your eyes, we're a bunch of girls
So help us as we struggle with the temptations of lesbianism. Amen
People come to me all the time, all the time
They say the same thing, you know
"Bo, you're an artist; how do we fix Africa?"
I read recently that there are over 22 million people living with HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa
I know, it's a Snapple fact
How do we fix it? How do we fix it? This.
Because laughter, laughter is the best medicine, you know
Besides medicine
