god is a monkey
and his son was a junkie
but his devil dog don’t bite
the holy ghost, he was a dinosaur

(when the full moon’s shining bright…)
created mankind in his image
one million years ago
and one million years later…
you’d never even know

and his son was a junkie
but his devil dog don’t bite
and mother mary was a prostitute
she worked the streets of what is now beirut
the first lady of the night…
god came to moses
no bed of roses
became a burning bush
that bush was burning
and now we’re learning
that bush was burning us…
we’re building robots

he had to stand on trial for a little while
get the crowd to come and listen to him
crowd, come listen
crowd, come listen
y’all don’t know just what you’re missing
(we’ve got the trial of the century on us…)
and you’ll all know it when the doomsday’s upon us…)

got some strong positions…
make the crowd come listen to him…
turn on your television…
turn off your inhibitions…
get the crowd to come listen to him…
crowd, come listen
crowd, come listen
y’all don’t know just what you’re missing
jumped through hoops of fire on a tightrope fire
then they’d listen to him…
then he became addicted to the fame and was evicted
by the same people who brought him in
CODA:
now there’s a space tonight
where once a stadium was filled with light
i saved a space here backstage for me and you…
