Bathroom Monologue: Twinkle, Twinkle, Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ Superstar
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in God's eye

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little lights,
Twinkle, twinkle, Jesus Christ,
what have you sacrificed?

This is a song merger I've done over a dozen times in the bathroom. It always falls apart after two stanzas, because neither song is worth much after the initial flourish. Hope this gets it out of my head once and for all.

    Ok... well, that makes sense. First I read it and couldn't choose which song to have in my head as musical accompaniment... then I read your comment at the end. Funny, the words can fit into both songs. Interesting concept there, John.

    Now that's an earworm if there ever was one.

    I hope it worked, John! Good combo.
