God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)

Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why

For if the children of Israel were to multiply

Why must any of the children

Why must they die?

So he asked the Lord, and the Lord said

"Man means nothing, he means less to me

Than the lowliest cactus flower or the humblest yucca tree

Chases 'round the desert

'Cause he thinks that's where I'll be

And that's why I love mankind"

"I recoil in horror from the foulness of thee

From the squalor and the filth and the misery

How we laugh up here in heaven

At the prayers you offer me

And that's why I love mankind"

The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree

The Buddhists and the Hindus

The Buddhists and the Hindus joined in on satellite TV

They picked their four greatest priests

And they began to speak

And they said, "Lord, a plague is on the world

Lord, no man is free

The temples that we built to you

Have crumbled down, fallen to the sea

Lord, if you won't take care of us

Please, please let us be?

And the Lord said, and the Lord said, he said

"I burn down your cities, how blind you must be

I take you your children and say how blessed are we

Now you all must be crazy to put your faith in me

And that's why I love mankind, you really need me

That's why I love, I love mankind"
