Everybody say God is a good man
|
(Minutes to midnight)
|
Everybody say God is a good man
|
(God is a good man)
|
Ah, clock on the world
|
(Yes, he's a good man)
|
Riding a dump truck up to the sun
|
(Is he a slow man?)
|
A sigh in the human heart
|
|
I look at the clock on the wall
|
It says three minutes to midnight
|
Faith is blind when we're so near
|
Phar Lap floating in a jar
|
Seas full of submarines, A.W.A.C.'s like flies
|
(Minutes to midnight)
|
Truth gets harder to define
|
Talking in - talking in tongues
|
But the dancer's hand grips the rail
|
Fingers will blister on the 88's
|
And hope drains out of the side of the page
|
|
But ears can't hear
|
What eyes don't see
|
And you can't see me
|
|
Everybody say God is a good man
|
(Minutes to midnight)
|
Everybody goes 1,2,3
|
Set up those gunsights in H.G. Wells' backyard
|
(God is a good man)
|
I.C.B.M's, S.S.20's they lie so dormant they got so many
|
Remember your childhood
|
Remember the journey
|
Hope is what you say and do
|
But ears don't hear
|
What eyes can't see
|
You can't see me!
|
|
But ears can't hear
|
What those eyes don't see
|
But ears can't hear
|
What those eyes don't see
|
And you can't see me!
|
