The Bronx /ˈbrɒŋks/ is the northernmost of the five boroughs (counties) of New York City in the state of New York, located south of Westchester County. Many bridges and tunnels link the Bronx to the island and borough of Manhattan to the west over and under the narrow Harlem River, as well as three longer bridges south over the East River to the borough of Queens. Of the five boroughs, the Bronx is the only one on the U.S. mainland and, with a land area of 42 square miles (109 km2) and a population of 1,438,159 in 2014, has the fourth largest land area, the fourth highest population, and the third-highest population density.
The Bronx is divided by the Bronx River into a hillier section in the west, closer to Manhattan, and a flatter eastern section, closer to Long Island. East and west street addresses are divided by Jerome Avenue—the continuation of Manhattan's Fifth Avenue. The West Bronx was annexed to New York City in 1874, and the areas east of the Bronx River in 1895. Bronx County was separated from New York County in 1914.
His body's abused
He'll die with the accused
He's losing his patience with life
If there's a bed
He cannot rest his head
'Cause we take too much of his time
So quit asking Jesus for help
And go out of find it yourself
Please quit asking Jesus for help
Go out and find it yourself
Silver or lead
Holes in your pockets
Or holes in your head
Silver or lead
Now we get no money
'Cause Jesus is dead
How to explain
What the world wants to know
I don't know where I should begin
I sit by his side
As the heir to his throne
Careful not to cast a stone
It's silver or lead
Holes in your pockets
Or holes in your head
Silver or lead
Now we give no money
'Cause Jesus is dead
Now silver or lead
Holes in your pockets
Or holes in your head
Silver or lead
Now we get your money
