Genesis/Phil Collins LIVE!- Jesus He Knows Me! -CONCERT Performance- (**Best English Song 1980s**)

LYRICS:..........

Do you see the face on the TV screen
Coming at you every sunday
See that face on the billboard
Well, that man is me

On the cover of the magazine
There's no question why I'm smiling
You buy a piece of paradise
You buy a piece of me

I'll get you everything you wanted
I'll get you everything you need
Don't need to believe in hereafter
Just believe in me

Cos Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything is alright

I believe in the family
With my ever loving wife beside me
But she don't know about my girlfriend
Or the man I met last night

Do you believe in God
Cos that is what I'm selling
And if you wanna get to heaven
I'll see you right

You won't even have to leave your house
Or get out of your chair
You don't even have to touch that dial
Cos I'm everywhere

Cos Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything gonna be alright

Won't find me practising what I'm preaching
Won't find me making no sacrifice
But I can get you a pocketful of miracles
If you promise to be good, try to be nice
God will take good care of you
Just do as I say, don't do as I do

I'm counting my blessings
Cos I've found true happiness
Cos I'm getting richer, day by day
You can find me in the phone book
Just call my toll free number
You can do it anyway you want
Just do it right away

There'll be no doubt in your mind
You'll believe everything I'm saying
If wanna get closer to him
Get on your knees and start paying

Cos Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything gonna be alright

Thanks for your comments..

[erg1234567890]

this song is the best one of genesis. its brillant and fantastic

[TheGerkuman]

This song isn't saying anything bad about Jesus anyway. It's attacking the greedy televangelists. It's the sort of statement that everyone can agree with. Those people suck.

[TheBoulou19]

même si tu ne crois pas en dieu! hihi!

[TheBoulou19]

when you're bad, you must listen him... and after it's ♥ :)

[TheBoulou19]

justttttttttt believe in meeeeeeeeeeee! the voice!!!!!!♥

[Bookem311]

I don't know why peiople think this is somehow anti-religion or anti-Jesus. It's simply pointing out the shady televangelists out there who promise you an audience with god, miracles and a trip to heaven if you just give them your money. In the meantime they get rich, cheat on their wives and don't follow their own advice. So tongue in cheek. I love this song! Powerful, funny and effective!

[Babbarum3]

@eternitydreamful And what has he told you. Please pass it on to the rest of us.

[Babbarum3]

Tells the story of these Holier Than Thou, Evangelists. Praise the lord, pass the collection plate, and women, to me.

The music video for the song is also brilliant.

[Featster74]

The "We Can't Dance" CD was released in 1991. How is this an "80's song"? Love the tongue in cheek lyrics though.

[FlopperTopper]

one of the best bands ever of this world. I love this group, they are the kings of music!

[Ebonyivorymusic]
