God's Song(That's Why I Love Mankind) - Etta James (埃塔·詹姆絲)

Cain slew Abel Seth knew not why

 

For if the children of Israel

 

Were to multiply

 

Why must any of the children

 

Why must they die

 

So he asked and the Lord

 

And the Lord said

 

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

 

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

 

The Christians and the Jews

 

Were having a jamboree

 

The Buddhists and the Hindus

 

The Buddhists and the Hindus

Joined on satellite TV

 

Picked their four greatest priests

 

And they began to speak

 

And they said

Lorda plague is on the world

 

Lord no man is free

 

The temples that we built to you

 

Have tumbled down

 

Fell into the sea

 

Lord if you won't take care of us

 

Please please let us be

 

And the Lord said

 

And the Lord said:

 

I burn down your cities

 

How blind you must be

 

I take you your children

 

And you say how blessed are we

 

You must all be crazy to

Put your faith in me

 

That's why I love mankind

 

You really need me

 

 

That's why love I love mankind
