Jesus in the desert
Through the wilderness
Tested by the devil
Took all that he possessed
Just to beat temptation
Such an awful fight
It took him 40 days and 40 nights

In those days of Canaan
Moses sent some spies
To check out the opposition
But did he realize
The task he was proposing
For the Israelites
Would take them 40 days and 40 nights

Well it's six straight weeks of tellin' one big lie
And if I make it 'til then it'd be a damn big surprise
But I see a trace of Lucifer in your eyes
So I'm watching my back as I'm checking out your thighs

The good prophet Elijah
From the evil Jezebel
Ran up to the mountain
To his knees he fell
Asked the Lord to save him
And went without a bite
For all of 40 days and 40 nights

That 2002 movie
'Bout going without girls
Fell flat with the public
Made audiences hurl
Josh Hartnett's career tenure
His span in the limelight
Lasted 40 days and 40 nights

Well it's six straight weeks of tellin' one big lie
And if I make it 'til then it'd be a damn big surprise
But I see a trace of Lucifer in your eyes
So I'm watching my back as I'm checking out your thighs
