Three songs on **Concrete Blonde** ’s album _Mexican Moon_.

_Jonestown_:  
They’re looking for Jesus, they’re looking for more  
But what are they looking up here to me for?  
They’re looking for someone, they’re praying for Christ  
They are looking for some human sacrifice  
It looks like Jonestown from here

_I Call It Love_:  
Some call it Allah, some call it God,  
Some call it Buddha, I call it Love  
Some call it power come from above  
Some call it Jesus, I call it Love

_Jesus Please Forgive Me (For the Things I’m About To Say)_:  
I killed you in my mind today  
I cut you up and watched you bleed  
I killed you in my heart today  
For everything you did to me  
Oh Jesus, please forgive me
