john martyn - god's song كلمات الأغنية

[i took the randy newman lyrics fromthis site and adapted them to the john martyn version]

cain slew abel;
seth, he knew not why.
for, if the children of israel were supposed to multiply,
why must any children die?
so he asked the l-rd.

and the l-rd said:

“man means nothing,
he means even less to me
than the lonliest cactus flower
or the homeless yucca tree.
he chases round the desert – hah!
chasing after me (’cause he thinks he might find me there).
l-rd, that’s why i love mankind
(he’s so stupid).

i recoil in horror from the fondness of thee,
from the squalor and the filth; all your misery
oh, how we laugh up here in heaven
at the praise you offer me.
that is why i just love mankind – hah!”

the christians and the jews,
they had a great, big jamboree.
the buddhists and the hindus
joined in on satellite tv.
they picked the four greatest priests –
they began to speak.

they said:

“plague is on the world –
l-rd, no man is free.
the temples that we’ve built to you,
they just tumbled to the sea;
l-rd, if you won’t take care of us,
please let us be!”

and the l-rd said …
… the l-ord said:

“i burn down your cities:
how blind you must be;
i take away your children:
you say how blessed are thee;
y’all must be crazy, now, men,
to put your faith in a man like me:
that’s why i love you, mankind!
that is why i you,
that’s why i love you, mankind!
hah, ha, ha, haah .”
