I have a friend that lives in Cincinnati and showed me this video on YouTube. It is from a church right outside the city and they decided to construct a Jesus statue. Ordinarily there wouldn’t be anything wrong with that, however; this statue of Jesus looked like it was made of butter. Heywood Banks appeared on the Bob and Tom show with his song rendition of this statue in all its glory. I am not bashing on any religion in any way, just the way this statue is constructed makes it entertaining.
He calls the video “Big Butter Jesus.” The video flashes several shots of this statue, with his arms in the air, in several different “costumes.” The fist is a referee and then a Bangles fan. He is complete with a foam finger and burger flipper. Those Bangle fans won’t rest till they’re the best and it is very appropriate that this Cincinnati Jesus support his team. The song says “maybe he scored a touchdown,” probably because he has his hands like a goal post.
Big Butter Jesus can be unsalted, sweet cream, Country Fresh, or Imperial. He may be melting or drowning, no one really knows. He is looking onto a lake though.
Because Jesus has his hands wide open he makes the perfect flight attendant. The statue is shown on an airplane showing the exits to the passengers. Jesus also appeared on “The Price is Right.” He threw his hands up in the air when he was the next contestant to come on down. While the real statue doesn’t have a lower half, the hula Jesus does. How else would he get his hula skirt on? Everyone loves someone with food right? Well Big Boy Jesus delivers a delicious hamburger.
And the entire song ends with, “oh spread The Word.” Would you spread Jesus on bread? Or would you spread his Word to people?
