It's a glorious feeling I'm up on my feet again [x2]
God gave up on the human race He said based upon the data that I've had to face You've really made a mess of the place that I've made for you And then you turn around and you ask me to save you Jews blame the Christians, Christians the Muslims Atheists admitted they were wrong but right The pope said, well, I guess that's that then Collectively we all breathe out a sigh
All of the damage that religion had done Was put into perspective underneath the sun And God said faith is a beautiful thing, But it's time for you to take responsibility kids Cause I don't know what you've been told, But the streets of heaven aren't lined with gold, You don't know what you've got till it's gone
It's a glorious feeling I'm up on my feet again [x4]
The human race gave up on god, And said it's high time that we all got along. The arguments about who the hell she loved best Were seen for what they were and laid to rest And politicians stopped using God as an excuse To commit the most blatant abuse of power
Loud like ringing in the ears The sounds of the prayers of the cheers From the people released All baptized at the miracle of life Without the regrets and the guilt and the threats Sex was celebrated, life was embraced The basic thing was maintain respect
And I don't know what you've been told, But the streets of heaven aren't lined with gold, You don't know what you've got till it's gone
On the streets of the cities of the world you find them People of all types who climb the horizon Fresh newborn's and the fresh new morning Lovers in the night who fly and then fall The march of survivors, designers, tyrants, messiahs, limousine drivers Colonels, brigadiers, sergeants, privates The scientists smashing particles together The junkies, the tradies, the gentlemen, the ladies, the babies The aged and infirm, the hermits, the perverts, the servants, the surgeons The insurgents killing in the name of god The slow and the steady who were ready for anything, The war on the menacing, and even center-link And the ones who were pedaling stories Of the grace and the glory
It's a glorious feeling I'm up on my feet again [x4]
