Dear God Lyrics - Skylarking - Xtc

Dear God, hope you get the letter and 

I pray you can make it better down here 

I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer 

But all the people that you made in your image 

See them starving on their feet 

'Cause they don't get enough to eat from God 

I can't believe in you 

Dear God, sorry to disturb you but 

I feel that I should be heard loud and clear 

We all need a big reduction in amount of tears 

And all the people that you made in your image 

See them fighting in the street 

'Cause they can't make opinions meet about God 

I can't believe in you 

Did you make disease and the diamond blue? 

Did you make mankind after we made you? 

And the Devil too! 

Dear God don't know if you noticed but 

Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book 

And us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look 

And all the people that you made in your image 

Still believing that junk is true 

Well I know it ain't, and so do you 

Dear God 

I can't believe in 

I don't believe 

I won't believe in heaven or hell 

No saints, no sinners, no devil as well 

No pearly gates, no thorny crown 

You're always letting us humans down 

The wars you bring, the babes you drown 

Those lost at sea and never found 

And it's the same the whole world 'round 

The hurt I see helps to compound 

The Father, Son and Holy Ghost 

Is just somebody's unholy hoax 

And if you're up there you'll perceive 

That my heart's here upon my sleeve 

If there's one thing I don't believe in 

It's you 

Dear God
