[Spoken: "This is God, Take 1”]

Oh ya…

Oh, God said to me
"Gonna kick your ass, 'cos all you do is ask, ask, ask
All that energy looking for me, when I'm sitting here inside you, plain to see
How I built you cell for cell, gave you sights to see, I gave you tales to tell
Even let you help yourself for a while, to take some weight off this busy child."

Now I said to God
"I found you out, 'cos I know what this life is all about!"

And God said
"Stop, don't scramble your brain
My opponent's been messing you around again
See him and me, are enemies and we play little games for galaxies
And he's inside you and I am too, so here we are, just the three of you
Oh, we made mistakes, too many cards, but making human beings can be hard
A God gets tired of playing so much chess
He wishes his God would get him out of his mess."

I said to God
"What's it like to die?"

He said
"It's as plain as the sea and sky
Conception was me and him and you
When your batteries fade, we all just move on."
Oh, I said to God
"Who's winning this game?
Is the devil in front?"

He said
"Is that his name?
You know I've been so busy I never asked
I never looked up from this awesome task."

I said to God
"What's good and bad?"

He said
"It's just something that you've gotta have
It don't mean nothing to us up here
But you’re primitive people, you gotta have fear."

Now I said to God
"Do I think for myself?"

He said
"I told you once you just help yourself
Don't you forget you're composed of three
Your thinking comes from him and me."

Now I said to God
"How big are you?
Is there a religion?
Is it true?
How big's the universe?
Is time, the same for you, as my life is to mine?"
Oh, He said
"If all the things that made worlds float, were all to part
Then you would note
The size of him and the size of me
And that's how big we both shall be."

He said
"The universe is small, just like some fortune-teller's ball
And we both sit down and we play the game
When somebody wins, it all starts again

There's no religion, you did that
It helps to keep your little leaders fat
Like faith and superstition stay, to help you pass the time away
But when you talk of time and life
It makes me think of circles and heights
Expansion is the clue, your dreams are nearer than you've ever been

Now you see my little toy to think, is from two bowls of wine to drink
Don't take too much or you may drown
Behave yourself
See you around."
