  D
I came down from the mountain with Moses by my side
       D                                           D7
He had twenty-eight commandments, not one I hadn't tried
   G 
He shook his head and smashed eighteen, I asked him what he'd done
   D                                A             D 
He said he'd be surprised if they remembered only one


Chorus:
            G                  D
Because the heart of your good neighbor
       D               A
Always seems extremely real
             D        G     D
But when you put them all together
         D    A           D
It don't seem like no big deal


I saw old Jack Kennedy just raking up some leaves
I asked him which man's theory was the one I should believe
Why the hell's a man like him workin in his yard 
He said I'm glad they shot me cause that job was just too damned hard

Chorus

They hired the finest waiters, they had checkered table cloths
Someone took a Polaroid so the moment wasn't lost
And all that you could eat on a Chinese food buffet
But when Jesus read his cookie, it said stay home today


Chorus
