Story Behind the Song
The New Millennium Pharisee" This is dedicated to the holier than thou, hypocrites we all know and love. This song was originally called Fair Ass Fairasseee. I shared it with another musician. He said Fairass sees Those Jew OOOOOs. When individuals pronounce Jews with two syllables there is angst there! I countered with "Henry you like me and I'm a Jew oooooo toooooo Worse than that I am a Catholic Jew ooooooo . My son Jonathan was born with an Asian Spot so I'm part oriental toooooo. Not only that I have these brown moles all over my body that are getting bigger and bigger. I will probably be totally black by the time I die. But please don't share that with any of your like minded friends." Henry (not his real name) is an old beat up solder friends who write songs. He is from the South, an honest bigot, who I love and enjoy. He a good cheerful caring person who has more redeeming graces than many of the new millennium Pharisees I have met in my life. When I had the old title I thought it would be neat if some TV late night host would ask their viewers to nominate a fair ass fairassee award for the Fairassee of the week award. that would be similar to the fickle finger of fate award from Laugh In.
Lyrics
Save me Lord , save me please, From the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees , the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees, have their scopes on you and me
Narrow of mind , Almost divine
Judge and juries of all mankind
Sometimes they’re in the pulpit, Sometimes they’re in the pew
Sometimes they are your neighbors, With their telescopes on you
The new millenium pharisees , the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees, have their scopes on you and me
With their moral microscopes, They look for sinners with out hope .
And try to clean them up with their brand of holy soap
than hang them High , High and dry, on a holy rope
Holy Cow , Holy smoke , 2 more sinners, In need of soap
They’re going to hang them High , High and dry, on a holy rope
Save them Lord Save them please from the new millenium pharasees
The new millenium pharisees , the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees, have their scopes on you and me
When wild fire rumors are burning free
Behind them you’ll find the Pharisees
They will echo untrue hearsays created to do harm
Then wait until the fires burning, then turn in the alarm.
When the finger of blame point at their own kind,
They become deaf dumb and blind
The new millenium pharisees , the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees, have their scopes on you and me
They live in houses made out of glass
They will shatter to shards, when the truth comes to past.
When the pharasees dark side see the light of day,
The truth becomes known, they will pay.
They alone are heaven bound
They think that we are all going down , .
Oh well, Time will tell
Who is going to heaven and who is going to hell. dy, Itgreat day, Hello every body Say good bye to the pharasee.
The new millenium pharisees , the new millenium pharisees
The new millenium pharisees, Good bye, at last we’re free
