Local Comedian Heywood Banks wrote “Big Butter” about a Jesus statue that sat in front of Solid Rock Church in Ohio. The statue was erected in 2004 and could be seen from I-75. The statue named “King of Kings” and nicknamed “Touchdown Jesus” and eventually, “Big Butter Jesus” depicted Jesus with his hands in the air similar to a field goal and could be seen from his chest up as he emerged from the water.

 

However in 2010 “Big Butter” was struck by lightning and burnt down to its framework. And new statue was built in its place, named “Corpus Christi” which was the full body of Jesus​ with one foot placed slightly forward and a welcoming gesture.

 

Heywood Banks was asked to write a new verse to the “Big Butter” song after it was published. The extended lyrics begin with the verse, “One night big butter got struck by lightning.”

In southern Ohio

Just north of Cincinnati

I beheld a vision

Next to the expressway

Was a 60-foot Jesus

With his hands in the air

Looked like he's carved out of butter

Just like at the state fair

 

Big butter Jesus

Sweet cream Jesus

O country-fresh Jesus

Unsalted Jesus

O promise Jesus

Imperial Jesus

Can't believe it's not Jesus

Oleo Lord

 

Well you see him from his chest up

Like he's about to do a backflip

Or maybe scored a touchdown

Or maybe melting or about to drown

You know I been to the state fair

Seen a calf made out of golden corn

Stephen Hawking out of string cheese

And the virgin out of olives

 

Big butter Jesus

Sweet cream Jesus

O country-fresh Jesus

Unsalted Jesus

O promise Jesus

Imperial Jesus

Can't believe it's not Jesus

Oleo Lord

 

Shipped in pieces on a flatbed

Staring backwards was his big head

Drivers stuck in traffic backups

Desperately avoiding eye contact

Well don't you make no graven images

I think it's one of the ten commandments

I hope the grading curve is kindly

You get into heaven with a ninety

 

Big butter Jesus

Sweet cream Jesus

O country-fresh Jesus

Unsalted Jesus

O promise Jesus

Imperial Jesus

Can't believe it's not Jesus

Oleo Lord

 

One night Big Butter

Got hit by lightning

It burned to the frame wire

Like a giant grease fire

Some blamed it on Satan

And boy, that would be frightening

But I thought it was Jesus’ father

Who was in charge of lightning

 

Extra crispy Jesus

Flaming shot Jesus

Fireball Jesus

Opa Jesus

Charbroiled marshmallow Jesus

Bananas foster Jesus

I’m put out it’s not Jesus
