God Is A Real Estate Developer Lyrics - Michelle Shocked

God is a real estate developer 

With offices around the nation 

They say one day he'll liquidate 

His holdings up on high 

I say it's all speculation 

He may be an absentee landlord 

This may be a low rent universe 

The roof may need repairs 

But at least the floor is there 

And the rent is not due till the first 

So save one last dance for the Savior 

When that final Hail Mary is said 

Life is a dance hall 

That's why we've got all those 

Little angels dancing 'round with pinheads 

The Lord Almighty Ltd 

And his chosen elect 

Sit on the up on high development board 

Quoting the Bible as they hoard 

The good book has a new look 

I suspect
