lyrics

Jesus and Mohammed come from different neighborhoods
But they both tried to tell the people about a higher good
How the meek shall inherit and the wicked shall cease
And they rode to Jerusalem on a half a horse apiece
A half a horse apiece, a half a horse apiece
And they rode to Jerusalem on a half a horse apiece
A Democratic her met a Republican him
And their parents said we’d rather see you dead
than one of them
A fight broke out at the wedding feast
And they rode to the funeral on a half a horse apiece
A half a horse apiece, a half a horse apiece
And they rode to the funeral on a half a horse apiece

I might lean to the left, you might lean to the right
Come on dance with me baby till the wee hours of the night
If I can learn to dance with these two left feet
Then there’s hope for the nation on a half a horse apiece
There’s hope for the nation on a half a horse apiece

I called up the President said how’s it going bub
He said I’m stuck up to my axle and I don’t think it’s mud
Well what do you expect when the house is full of geese
And we rode out of the capitol on half a horse apiece
A half a horse apiece, a half a horse apiece
And we rode out of the capitol on half a horse apiece

I might lean to the left, you might lean to the right
Come on dance with me baby till the wee hours of the night
If I can learn to dance with these two left feet
Then we can lead the nation on a half a horse apiece
We can lead the nation on a half a horse apiece

Remember my friends this ain’t no sporting event
Nobody has to lose and nobody gets to win
The art of the compromise is what my baby needs
I’ll meet you in the middle on a half a horse apiece
A half a horse apiece, a half a horse apiece
I’ll meet you in the middle on a half a horse apiece
