Ian Hunter - God (Take 1) Lyrics
(ian hunter)God said to me "gonna kick your ass - cos all you do is ask ask askAll that energy looking for me when Im sitting here inside you - plain to seeHow I built you cell for cell gave you sights to see - gave you tales to tellEven let you help yourself for a while - to take some weight off this busy child"I said to God "i found you out - I know what this world is all about!"God said "stop - dont scramble your brain - my opponents been messing you around againSee him and me are enemies and we play little games for galaxiesAnd hes inside you - n I am too - so here we are - just the three of you""oh we made mistakes - too many cards - but making human beings can be hardA God gets tired of playing so much chess - he wishes his God would get him out of his mess"I said to God "whats it like to die" he said "its as plain as the sea and skyConception was him and me and you - when your batteries fade we all just move on"I said to God "whos winning this game - is the devil in front" he said "is that his nameYou know Ive been so busy I never asked - I never looked up from this awesome task"I said to God "whats good n bad" he said "its just something youve got to haveIt dont mean nothing to us up here - but your primitive people - you gotta have fear"I said to God "do I think for myself" he said I told you once you just help yourselfDont forget youre composed of three, your thinking comes from him and me"I said to God "how big are you, is there a religion - is it trueHow bigs the universe - is time - the same for you as my life is to mine"God said "if all the things that made worlds float - were all to part - then you would noteThe size of him and the size of me - and thats how big we both shall be"He said "the universe is small - just like some fortune-tellers ballAnd we both sit down - and we play the game - when somebody wins it all starts again""theres no religion - you did that - it helps to keep your little leaders fatLike faith n superstition stay - to help you pass the time awayBut when you talk of time and life - it makes me think of circles, heightsExpansion is the clue - your dreams - are nearer than youve ever been""you see my little toy to think - is from two bowls of wine to drinkDont take too much or you may drown - behave yourself - see you around..."
