Funny story: Dan Bern wrote a song called Jerusalem, in which he proclaims, comically, I AM THE MESSIAH and explains thus:Everybodys waiting for the Messiah The Jews are waiting The Christians are waiting Oh so are the Muslims Its like everybodys waiting They been waiting a long time I know how I hate to wait Like even for a bus or something An important phone call So I can imagine how darned impatient Everyone must be getting So I think its time now Time to reveal myself I am the Messiah I am the Messiah Yes I think you heard me right I am the Messiah I was gonna wait till next year Build up the suspense a little Make it a really big surprise But I could not resist Its like when you got a really big secret Youre just bursting to tell someone It was kinda like that with this And now that Ive told you I feel this great weight lifted Dr. Nusbaum was right Hes my therapist He said get it out in the open With that tune in my head, yesterday, a woman came into my store to buy hair products, and somehow I sang that line loud enough for her to hear me. Suddenly she put her head down, closed her eyes, raised her open hand in the air, and said, pretty loudly, Praise Jesus So I said it louder, and she repeated her actions too. We laughed and she told me her sister, had she been there, would have been down ona knee, praying to me for forgiveness. You cant make this stuff up. https://youtube/watch?v=tLvub8AmDww
