God Shuffled His Feet lyrics
by Crash Test Dummies
After seven daysHe was quite tired, so God said:"Let there be a dayJust for picnics, with wine and bread"He gathered up some people he had madeCreated Blankets and laid back in the shadeThe people sipped their wineAnd what with God there, they asked him questionsLike: do you have to eatOr get your hair cut in heaven?And if your eye got poked out in this lifeWould it be waiting up in heaven with your wife?God shuffled his feet and glanced around at themThe people cleared their throats and stared right back at himSo he said: "Once there was a bodyWho woke up with blue hairTo him it was a joyUntil he ran out into the warm air-He thought of how his friends would come to see;And would they laugh or had he got some strange disease?"God shuffled his feet, and glanced around at themThe people cleared their throats and stared right back at himThe people sat waitingOut on their blankets in the gardenBut God said nothingSo someone asked him, "I beg your pardon:I'm not quite clear about what you just spoke-Was that a parable, or a very subtle joke?"God shuffled his feet and glanced around at themThe people cleared their throats and stared right back at him----------------------
