What God Wants, Part I
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What God wants, God gets
God help us all
What God wants God gets
The kid in the corner looked at the priest
And fingered his pale blue Japanese guitar
The priest said
God wants goodness
God wants light
God wants mayhem
God wants a clean fight
What God, wants God gets
Don't look so surprised
It's only dogma
The alien prophet cried
The beetle and the springbok
Took the bible from its hook
The monkey in the corner
Wrote the lesson in his book
What God, wants God gets
God help us all
God wants peace
God wants war
God wants famine
God wants chain stories
What God, wants God gets
God wants sedition
God wants sex
God wants freedom
God wants semtex
What God, wants God gets
Don't look so afraid
I'm only joking
The alien comic cried
The jackass and hyena
Took the feather from its book
The monkey in the corner
Wrote the joke down his book
What God, wants God gets
God wants boarders
God wants crack
God wants rainfall
God wants wetbacks
What God, wants God gets
God wants voodoo
God wants shrines
God wants law
God wants organised crime
God wants crusade
God wants jihad
God wants good
God wants bad
What God, wants God gets
