Lyrics
Some people say
Back in the day
The world was a paradise
No pollution and din
No vice and no sin
But the serpent gave bad advice
Some people believe
That Adam and Eve
Ate from the knowledge tree
Which made them sad
And made God mad
And now we all live in misery
Well we call him Jesus
And we hope he pleases us
And resurrects us when we die
We call him Christ
And we call him twice
In hopes of some pie in the sky
We call him Buddha
When we're in the mood a
And try to be enlightened too
We may call him Allah
And say he is our pal a
When all our days are through
Well we condemn the other
And say he's not our brother
If he doesn't believe like we do
We scorn and we hate
We don't try to relate
Because We think we know what's true
But the God that we know
You know he's just for show
He's not the eternal one
The one we beseech
Is out of our reach
But we'll know him when our days are done
