Parody of "Pink Houses" by John Cougar Mellencamp (John 9) Well, there's a blind man - he's a beggar He was a blind since birth But to demonstrate the power of God Jesus looked at him and spat down on the earth He made ointment with His spittle Then Jesus put the mud on his eyes And when the man got back from washin' at Siloam He was no longer blind Ah, but ain't that a miracle? Yes, indeed Ain't that a miracle? Now he can see, baby! Ain't that a miracle? Totally free! Anything's possible if you believe -- oh, if you believe! Now the neighbors saw the beggar 'Cause they knew him from his previous occupation Some said, "Is he the one who used to sit and beg?" Some said, "No, this must be some imitation!" But the beggar kept affirming that he was the one who'd been blind He said, "This Jesus guy made clay, put it on my eyes and said 'Wash and you'll be fine.'" CHORUS Well, the people took him to the temple And brought in his folks Took him up to the Pharisees They said "Is this your son? How did he get healed?" They said "We don't know!" Ooh yeah! But they didn't even listen to the man himself Because this world demands a sign and when it gets one It just wants to stick it on a shelf CHORUS
