Just a note - since all of the past threads about PJ - some one's got the original PJ lp by the Goldcoast Singers up on E-bay ! Thought some of you would want to know!

Paul S.,

I hope you are not Paul Sarbanes, Senator from Maryland.

We've discussed this song several times, most throughly on this thread.

Gene provides a link in that thread to three versions of Plastic Jesus at this site.

Enjoy the music!

It seems that every version of this song has different lyrics. Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon recorded a version quite similar to the one in the DT. The Leveller's did one in a wonderful jug band-type style that was basically the chorus sung over and over, along with this one couplet break:

I don't like kisses
and I don't like hugs
I just like lots
of sex and drugs

I've even written my own. Does anyone else know any others?
