Also included in the song are references to "Virgin >Mary", "sweet Madonna", and "colors pind and irridescent". If I hear this song regularly on the Dr. Demento Radio Show. The version I hear is "Plastic Jesus" by the Gold Coast Singers. -- Al Schwartz Pacesetter Systems Inc., Sylmar, CA {trwrb|allegra|burdvax|cbosgd|hplabs|ihnp4|sdcsvax|aero|uscvax|ucla-cs| bmcg|sdccsu3|csun|orstcs|akgua|randvax}!sdcrdcf!psivax!al or {ttdica|quad1|scgvaxd|nrcvax|bellcore|logico}!psivax!al ARPA: ttidca!psivax!al@rand-unix.arpa
