[00:11.28] | Cain slew Abel Seth knew not why |
[00:18.97] | For if the children of Israel were to multiply |
[00:27.46] | Why must any of the children die |
[00:34.03] | So he asked the Lord |
[00:37.78] | And the Lord said |
[00:41.72] | Man means nothing he means less to me |
[00:49.90] | Than the lowliest cactus flower |
[00:53.59] | Or the humblest Yucca tree |
[00:57.84] | He chases round this desert |
[01:01.78] | Cause he thinks that’s where I’ll be |
[01:06.84] | That’s why I love mankind |
[01:13.58] | |
[01:15.45] | I recoil in horror from the foulness of thee |
[01:24.01] | From the squalor and the filth and the misery |
[01:30.70] | |
[01:32.08] | How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me |
[01:41.02] | That’s why I love mankind |
[01:50.08] | |
[01:53.89] | The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree |
[02:01.59] | The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV |
[02:09.59] | They picked their four greatest priests |
[02:13.28] | And they began to speak |
[02:15.65] | They said Lord a plague is on the world |
[02:21.15] | Lord no man is free |
[02:25.16] | The temples that we built to you |
[02:29.15] | Have tumbled into the sea |
[02:33.28] | Lord if you won’t take care of us |
[02:36.34] | Won’t you please please let us be |
[02:40.34] | And the Lord said |
[02:42.35] | |
[02:44.15] | And the Lord said |
[02:45.72] | |
[02:51.15] | I burn down your cities how blind you must be |
[02:59.34] | I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we |
[03:07.90] | You all must be crazy to put your faith in me |
[03:16.97] | That’s why I love mankind |
[03:21.53] | You really need me |
[03:24.85] | |
[03:25.72] | That’s why I love mankind |
