===Lyrics===
 What will people think
 When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak?
 What will people do
 When they find that's it's true? 
 
 Separated, I cut myself clean
 From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
 Been apprehended by a spiritual force
 And a grace that replaced all the me I’ve divorced
 
 I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
 It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
 It took me a while to catch what it said
 Cause I had to match the rhythm
 Of his belly with my head
 ’Jesus saves’ is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
 He stood on a box in the middle of the city
 And claimed he had a dream
 
 What will people think
 When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak?
 What will people do
 When they find that's it's true? 
 What will people think
 When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak
 What will people do when they find that it's true
 I don’t really care if they label me a Jesus freak
 There ain’t no disguising the truth
 
 Kamikaze, my death is gain
 I’ve been marked by my maker
 A peculiar display
 The high and lofty, they see me as weak
 Cause I won’t live and die for the power they seek
 There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
 The sand that he walked was also his bed
 The words that he spoke made the people assume
 There wasn’t too much left in the upper room
 With skins on his back and hair on his face
 They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
 The pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
 Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak
 
 What will people think
 When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak?
 What will people do
 When they find that's it's true? 
 What will people think
 When they hear that I’m a Jesus freak
 What will people do when they find that it's true
 I don’t really care if they label me a Jesus freak
 There ain’t no disguising the truth
 
 People say I’m strange, does it make me a stranger
 That my best friend was born in a manger
 People say I’m strange, does it make me a stranger
 That my best friend was born in a manger
 
 What will people think (what will people think)
 What will people do (what will people do)
 I don’t really care (what else can I say)
 There ain’t no disguising the truth (Jesus is the way)
