Orange Jesus

https://suno.com/song/15937608-0c21-4ce9-a30a-040feb8a4f05


Verse 1

Saw a pickup preachin’ louder than the AM dial

Bumper stickers stacked like a trial by fire

Talk radio prophets, flags in the bed

Sayin’ God wears red, white, blue… and spray-tan instead

Mama says hush, don’t start nothin’ tonight

But the jukebox is loud and the beer’s feelin’ brave

Every sermon needs a savior

Every bar needs a fight


Pre-Chorus

They don’t need proof, don’t need facts

Just a microphone and a devil to smack


Chorus

They found Orange Jesus in a golf-course suit

Turned a businessman into absolute truth

Walks on tweets, turns rage into wine

Says “Trust me, brother, I been right every time”

Yeah, the blind lead the loud, the loud lead the lost

They’ll nail you to a cross just to prove a point

Say grace with a fist and a middle-finger thesis

All hail, amen — Orange Jesus


Verse 2

Got a bible on the dash, never cracked the spine

Got a cross on the mirror, judgment in their eyes

They pray for mercy but vote for war

Say love thy neighbor, then lock the door

Sermons dressed up as cable news

Faith measured out in winning and losing

If you doubt the word, you’re the enemy

If you question the king, you’re blasphemy


Pre-Chorus

It ain’t about God, it ain’t about right

It’s about feelin’ chosen in a barroom fight


Chorus

They found Orange Jesus in a gold-leaf lie

Said the rich get richer ’cause the poor don’t try

Breaks commandments, sells it as strength

Says humility’s weak, but vengeance ain’t

Yeah, the loud clap louder, the truth gets bruised

They’ll burn the book just to win the feud

Wrap hate in a flag, call it freedom of speech, yeah

All hail, amen — Orange Jesus


Bridge

I ain’t holy, I ain’t clean

I don’t need a king to tell me what I mean

If God’s real, He’s shakin’ His head

Watchin’ men use His name to place their bets


Half-Chorus (drop it down)

Yeah, I’ll take my chances with the flawed and the free

Over saints with a sponsor and a messiah on TV


Final Chorus

They found Orange Jesus, bigger than God

Forgives every sin soon as you nod

Truth’s just a rumor, power’s the prize

And faith’s just a tool when it’s televised

Yeah, love gets lost when fear’s the thesis

But don’t blame heaven — blame the preachers

I’ll keep my soul, you keep your pieces

You can have your king — Orange Jesus


Outro (spoken / sung)

  • I am my own God ;)... I think more of a country gospel would sound better, but that's me :)

  • Who Trump ? pretty much . Well its outlaw with attitude

    Just the song and politics aside, I liked the sound of the 1st verse the best, as it has a Johnny Cash vibe for me.

    Every line has bite to it, they rhyme, they're creative and not predictable, theme is consistent though out the song.

    "Yeah, the blind lead the loud, the loud lead the lost" Great line, good job turning a cliche into something new.

    well written.

  • its humorous , I'm not much into politics

    That works also , Look at Trump . You cross him your done . Well I really hate politics , its just a hook Chris came up with , so I wrote it

  • Just heard this. My next offering here will be the song I recorded late last year which also features the Orange Jesus. Not in the title, but similar sentiments.

    Loving this. It's getting harder to work out how much is Suno and how much is you, but I know a good song when I hear one.

    Taken with a pinch of salt. I'm not really into politics, though the orange man doesn't impress me much!

    You've been asking this same question for 8 months , Suno is a demo . If I feel the song is strong enough , I pay the 700.00 do record it

    Yes Chris the melody is stolen from session players , Nothing has changed . What has changed some writers take advantage of it .

    Here's what's going on with writers that give Suno a melody , they feel a little less guilty for using Suno

    We did not invent Suno , Its the signs of the times

    Back to humor cuz life is Comedy Central

    A black van is going to pull next to you, as you're walking out of the liquor store and away you go, never to be heard from again.. probably lol

  • That's cos I've been wondering for 8 months!! I've nothing against Suno really - it's just not for me. But I get what you're doing.

    I'll watch out for that black van!!😁

  • Right the black van Never see it coming like the cartel lol

    Yeah but I wrote it , So thats difference Tom . I'm surprised no one wrote that hook on that asshole , but me . Thats a great hook . Walk in a veterans hospital , that prick made his pic look like Jesus. That aint no lie , walk in there WTF. I told the other Vet that looks like god damn Jesus , yeah it does. The FBI will probably kid nap my dog for saying that , We have eyes on you boy, No sense of humor for presidents

  • I can't stop laughing at the title to get through the song's meaning. LMBO.

    Love the melody and songwriting.

    You amaze me! lol.

  • ha ha ha
