Song From the Perspective of God

You argue and you bicker and you fight.
Atheists and Catholics, Jews and Hindus argue day and night.
Over what they think is true.

But no one entertains the thought that maybe God does not believe in you.
You pray so badly for heaven knowing any day might be the day that you die.
But maybe life on earth could be heaven.
Doesn't just the thought of it make it worth a try?

My love's the type of thing that you have to earn and when you earn it you won't need it.
I'm not gonna give you love just 'cause I know that you want me to.
If you want love then the love's gonna come from you.

Love

I love your hair I love your name I love the way you say it.
I love your heart and you're so smart, 'cause you gave away it.
I love your sis' I love your dad I love your mum.
But more than all of that I love the fact that you are dumb enough,
To not realize everything I've said has been said before.
In a thousand ways in a thousand songs, some with the same four chords.
I also hope that you don't see through
This cleverly constructed ruse
Designed by a marketing team.
Cashing in on puberty and low self-esteem
And girls' desperate need to feel loved
I love my baby and you know I couldn't live without her
But now I need to make every girl think this song's about her
Just to make sure that they spread it like the plague
So I describe my dream girl as really really vague, like
"I love your hands 'cause your fingerprints are like no other
I love your eyes and their blueish brownish greenish color.
I love it when you smile, that you smile wide,
And I love how your torso has an arm on either side.
We know it's not right, we know it's not funny,
But we'll stop beating this dead horse when it stops spitting out money.
But until then, we will repeat stuff.
