I saw a most amazing thing, the likes of which I haven't seen
Almighty God in all his glory, laughing uproariously
He was looking through the heavens at the happenings down on earth
Then I asked him, quite respectfully; "What's so funny?" "My Lord, such mirth!"
He said; "You people, you just kill me, if you can forgive the pun."
Then I heard him kindly asking Jesus; "Pardon me please, won't you my son?"
He told me; "Just look at those people, tell me friend, what do you see?"
"Don't they wipe out entire generations, and atone by saving a tree?"
"Now that's funny!" "Yeah, I get it, and the arrogance of their pride!"
The more they puffed their accomplishments up, the more I had to laugh inside
They're going to save the planet some day, and all the creatures that live there
Cause it makes them feel religious, and after all, it shows they care
Surely they know that we're only renting and soon will be evicted
Cause he wants to make a new one that's not gravity restricted
Then I saw Gabriel doing stand-up, and was pleasantly surprised
He keeps the angels all in stitches, with his wit and laughing eyes
I almost lost my composure, with his Clinton impersonation
"Domestic tranquility through progressive prevarication"
A daunting place it turned out to be, familiar though, somehow to me
Like deja vu, coincidence, or some manifest destiny
I left there like I went there, just wandered in and just wandered out
I can't explain, nor would I try, what it was even all about
I only know, and this I swear, there is a good God in heaven
Beyond all that, I just don't care, what I don't know now, I will know then
I can still hear him laughing though, if I listen with intent
A still, small, reassuring voice, that I know is heaven sent
