God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)

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
