That's why God is singing the Blues - how I feel about the world today
Sorry, no video found, but here are the lyrics -
THAT'S WHY GOD IS SINGING THE BLUES(David Corbett*)
Recorded by : Ian Gillan; Deep Purple.
We took the p out of paradisejust to produce this hell
And all we're going to leave behind is this decaying putrid smell
We've lived in this worldseen her used and abused
That's why God is singing the blues
They felled a great oak over therethey filled a duck pond over here
We've got a glass and concrete monster now that feeds and caters toour fears
Maybe it's too lateto spoil another view
That's why God is singing the blues
Forgive us fatherfor we know not what we do
Blame it on each otherand in the name of you
Forgive us motherfor the pain we causedwe destroyed what's yours
That's why papa's singing the blues
Polluted all the oceanspulped all the trees
Plagued by chronic boredomwe blew a hole in the atmosphere
We tore out her heartleft her battered and bruised
That's why God is singing the blues
Forgive us fatherfor we know not what we do
Blame it on each otherand in the name of you
Forgive us motherfor the pain we causedwe destroyed what's yours
That's why papa's singing the blues
You may believe in evolutionyou may believe in God's great creation
The only thing we know for surewe got a man made situation
We turned this whole worldinto a dying zoo
That's why God is singing the blues
You better live on your feetthan die on your knees
I stole that from some graffitilord have mercy please
Living in this babylonkeeps us confused
That's why God is singing the blues
