God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind) - Remastered

Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why
 For if the children of Israel were to multiply
 Why must any of the children die?
 So he asked the Lord
 And the Lord said:
 Man means nothing, he means less to me
 Than the lowliest cactus flower
 Or the humblest Yucca tree
 He chases round this desert
 'Cause he thinks that's where I'll be
 That's why I love mankind
 I recoil in horror from the foulness of thee
 From the squalor, and the filth, and the misery
 How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me
 That's why I love mankind
 The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree
 The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV
 They picked their four greatest priests
 And they began to speak
 They said, "Lord a plague is on the world
 Lord no man is free
 The temples that we built to you
 Have tumbled into the sea
 Lord, if you won't take care of us
 Won't you please please let us be?"
 And the Lord said
 And the Lord said
 I burn down your cities - how blind you must be
 I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we
 You all must be crazy to put your faith in me
 That's why I love mankind
 You really need me
 That's why I love mankind
