[wyclef jean]

This is not the burial, it's the ressurection

Hey kids gather 'round (all around the world)

It's dj muggs, with wyclef (yeah, all around the world)

Aha, i got a story to tell (all around the world)

Check it out, c'mon



[chorus]

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16

(uh-huh) says the boy to the fiend

What do you mean? huh (uh-huh)

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every one packs an m-16

I wanna wake up from this dream

(i wanna wake up from this dream) check it out



[verse one]

I caught the bullet, i was stumblin like a mulet

Drink white russian; game, russian roulette

Flight continental six o'clock in the mornin

Briefcase full o' cocaine on my way out, i tipped the doorman

Jumped into the cab said, "hail mary, full of grace"

Yesterday communion was the mafia's reunion

Confessed to the priest, evade the apple, i ate the peach

Slept with vanity, sold my soul to robin leach

Devil music in my ear, no fear, i'm pumpin def leppard

Slow down, here comes the narc' with the german shepherd

I got the plan, man, meet me in the van

I got this kid from the sudan bringin tecs from iran (uh-huh)



[chorus]

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16

Says the boy to the fiend (all around the world)

(uh-huh) what do you mean? what do you mean?

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every one packs an m-16

Says the girl to the fiend (uh-huh)

So in the streets, the product must be clean (uh-huh)



[verse two]

Five-eleven, the young one went to heaven

Yo with the gun to his head; yo he was already dead

Sunday mornin in court, the judge got wyclef confessin

"yo, i murdered steve austin," now i'm wanted by bionic woman

Women bring you more miseries like that movie

Stress go to india, smoke hashish with ghandi (uh-huh)

My bills of rights is to make sure you're alright

Superman left the gang, cause his weakness was crips-tonight (bing)

Godfather got the cottonballs to his cheeks

Pig couldn't fly straight so you die in your sleep

I stay awake only to see nicodemus

The young one got murdered, the day was the sabbath



[chorus]

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16

What do you mean, says the boy to the fiend

Why we killin for the green?

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16

Says the girl to the fiend (all around the world)

I wanna wake up from this dream



[verse three]

I know this drug dealer, who drive a black beamer

Dreadlock cut off once by this girl named delilah

Pretty little dancer, voice like tina turner

Chickenheads are you a virgin? yeah right, so was madonna!

S-s-sinner, sinner, seek the master

If not, feel the explosion from the day after

Bit by the vampire, worked for the mobster

Two to the head - and now you swimmin with the lobsters

We got'cha got'cha, set up in oklahoma

You caught a bad one like a kid catchin pneumonia

So storyteller, what's the moral of this story?

Live reality and don't get caught up in your fantasy



[chorus]

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16

Says the boy to the fiend (all around the world)

Aren't we all human beings? (uh-huh)

What do you mean, john 3:16?

For god so loved the world, every man packs an m-16 (m-16)

But the dream.. is still for green..

(so) so we die in the steam



[wyclef jean]

(what do you mean, john 3:16?)

This is how it is around the way, y'knahmsayin muggs?

Wyclef.. and it don't stop

Refugee camp, bing!
