lyrics

God on the Phone

.

Somebody get me God on the phone

I think I need some answers

Cos, staying alive could mean staying alone

and I’m, not taking any chances



The weight of the world is like a gun to my head

Bring me some coffee please

Those kids on the news look way underfed

A burger double cheese

And I’m taking the Pulitzer Prize as the soldiers turn

I get shoes in exactly my size as the bodies burn

As the bodies burn



Somebody get me God on the phone

We need a new direction

The friend of mine here with a hole in her vein

Has got a new infection



And I’m flying my kite in the breeze,
as she writes her will

And if love makes me weak in the knees,
why does cancer kill?



The cancer kills



I’m going straight from hell with you

I’m going straight to God for you

And then I’ll look him in the eye

…well, maybe I’ll do it …
