God's Song

Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why

For if the children of Israel are supposed to multiply

Why must any children die?

So he asked the Lord

And the Lord said.

Man means nothing, he means even less to me

Than the lowliest cactus flower

Or the humblest Yucca tree

Chases round the desert

Chasing after me, thinks he might find me but

Lord that's why I love mankind

So stupid

I recoil in horror at the fondness of thee

From the squalor and the filth are your misery

How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer

me

That is why I just love mankind.

The Christians and the Jews, they had a great big

jamboree

The Buddhists and the Hindus joined in on satellite TV

They picked their four greatest priests

They began to speak; they said.

Plague is on the world

Lord, no man is free!

The temples that we built to you

They just tumble into the sea

Lord, if you won't take care of us

Please, let us be?

And the Lord said

And the Lord said

I burn down your cities; how blind you must be

I take away your children; you say: how blessed are we

You all must be crazy to God in there to put your faith

in a man like me

That's why I love mankind

That is why I love

That's why I love you mankind.
