Description
This is another "gnostic disco" wanna-be, recorded when we were working on another sound direction, with heavier bass. I wasn't too convinced by the vocal melody and I thought there were too many GB loops on this, but retrospectively I rather like it, as it's a bit different from the other stuff.
I didn't make up any events in the lyrics, they belong to one of those ancient writings known as "infancy gospels", telling the miracles Jesus made in his childhood. Though the miracles in question seem a bit uncanny, they were supposed to show how supernatural and how disconnected from human nature he was: a somewhat gnostic take on the story, which explains why they did not made the grade among the canonical scriptures.

Lyrics
Jesus was five when one day
a child had pushed him around
Jesus said ‘here ends your way’
The child fell dead on the ground
The parents came to his father
To complain the kid was a fiend
They were in tears and in anger
But jesus, he struck them blind
When jesus
was a kid
He was dangerous
He was wicked
See what they did
To this brat
Do you wanna die like that ?
Joseph took his child to school
The teacher taught him ABC
When he said repeat after me
Jesus said you’re a damn fool
You teach me B and don’t know A
The teacher hit him on the head
So Jesus he made him drop dead
Turned his back and went away
When jesus
was a kid
He was vicious
He was wicked
See what they did
To this brat
Do you wanna die like that ?
a child had pushed him around
Jesus said ‘here ends your way’
The child fell dead on the ground
The parents came to his father
To complain the kid was a fiend
They were in tears and in anger
But jesus, he struck them blind
When jesus
was a kid
He was dangerous
He was wicked
See what they did
To this brat
Do you wanna die like that ?
Joseph took his child to school
The teacher taught him ABC
When he said repeat after me
Jesus said you’re a damn fool
You teach me B and don’t know A
The teacher hit him on the head
So Jesus he made him drop dead
Turned his back and went away
When jesus
was a kid
He was vicious
He was wicked
See what they did
To this brat
Do you wanna die like that ?

love all the sounds. the guitar sounds really cool (you always get a good Cure sort of sound). I see what you mean about the melody, good be a little more....something. The song is so cool, you may want to re-do it. Feel awkward about giving a critique as I love all of your stuff (a critique implies that I know something more than my own opinion; which is surely not the case). Anyways I like this.
