Me up with love, love, love
A surprise on the way, any day, any day
By the authorities less informed than he
I came to shed a little light on this darkening scene
He said, "Eat this bread and think of it as Me
The wise men came, three made their way
To shower Him with love, while He lay in the hay
The blood of our children all around
Love, love love, love, love was all around
So I'm told, so the story goes, the people He knew were
Instead I fear I've spilled the blood of My children all around"
Love, love, love all you need is love
When Jesus Christ was nailed to His tree
Kept His mother Mary worried always out on His own
Father up above, why in all this hatred do You fill
Me up with love, fill me love, love, love
For His deviations, taken into custody
Said "Oh, Daddy-o, I can see how it all soon will be
Like you and me, like you and me
The blood of our children's all around
One healthy little giggling, dribbling Baby Boy
Preparations were made for his celebration day
Less than golden hearted, gamblers and robbers
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Love, love love, love, love was all around
Searching for love, love, love
Drinkers and jokers all soul searchers
The blood of My children all around
Shower him with love, love, love
His heart full of love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love
The blood of My children's all around
Love, love love, love, love was all around
The blood of our children all around
Father up above, why in all this hatred do You fill
Rumors insisted He soon would be
Not very much of His childhood was known
He met another Mary who for a reasonable fee
Love, love love, love, love was all around
Drink this wine and dream it will be"
You can't buy me love
Less than reputable was known to be
