letra de god's song (that's why i love mankind) [2003] - randy newman

[verse 1]
cain slew abel and seth knew not why
for if the children of israel were supposed to multiply
then why must any of the children die?
so he asked the lord, and the lord said:

[verse 2]
“man means nothing, he means less to me
than the lowliest cactus flower or the humblest yucca tree
chases round this desert ’cause he thinks that’s where i’ll be
that’s why i love mankind

[verse 3]
“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
that’s why i love mankind”

[verse 4]
the christians and the jews, they’re having a jamboree
the buddhists and the hindu joined on satellite tv
they picked their four greatest priests
and they began to speak

[verse 5]
said, “lord, a plague is on the world, lord, no man is free
the temples that we built to you have tumbled into the sea
lord, if you won’t take care of us, won’t you please, please let us be?”
and the lord said, and the lord said:
[verse 6]
“i burn down your cities, how blind you must be
i take from you your children and you say, ‘how blessed are we?’
y’all must be crazy to put your faith in me
that’s why i love mankind
you really need me
that’s why i love mankind”
