Karaoké Dear God XTC

Dear God

Hope you got the letter and

I pray you can make it better down here

I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer

But all the people that you made in your image

See them starving on their feet 'cos they don't get enough to eat from God

Can't believe in you

Dear God

Sorry to disturb you but

I feel that I should be heard loud and clear

We all need a big reduction in amount of tears

And all the people that you made in your image

See them fighting in the street 'cos they can't make opinions meet about God

I can't believe in you

Did you make disease and the diamond blue

Did you make mankind after we made you

Mmh mmh mmh mmh

And the devil too

Dear God

Don't know if you noticed but

Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book

And us crazy humans wrote it

You should take a look

And all the people that you made in your image

Still believing that junk is true

Well I know it ain't and so do you

Dear God

I can't believe in

I don't believe in

I won't believe in Heaven and Hell

No saints, no sinners

No devil as well

The pearly gates

No thorny crown

You're always letting us humans down

The wars you bring

The babes you drown

Those lost at sea and never found

And it's the same the whole world 'round

The hurt I see helps to compound

That Father, Son and Holy Ghost is just somebody's unholy hoax

And if you're up there you'd perceive that my heart's here upon my sleeve

If there's one thing

I don't believe in

It's you

Dear God
