Boy: "I don't mind about the war, that's one of the things I like to watch.
If it's a war going on, 'cause then I know if our side's winning, if our side's losing...

Man: What do you want? Go away!
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
Man: Go away. Alright then…
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets; God help us all

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

The kid in the corner looked at the priest
And fingered his pale blue Japanese guitar

The priest said:
God wants goodness
God wants light
God wants mayhem
God wants a clean fight

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

Don't look so surprised
It's only dogma
The alien prophet cried
The beetle and the springbok
Took the Bible from its hook
The monkey in the corner
Wrote the lesson in his book

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

God wants peace
God wants war
God wants famine
God wants chain stores

What God wants, God gets

God wants sedition
God wants sex
God wants freedom

God wants semtex

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

Don't look so afraid
I'm only joking
The alien comic lied
The jackass and hyena
Took the feather from its hook
The monkey in the corner
Wrote the joke down in his book

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

God wants borders
God wants crack
God wants rainfall
God wants wetbacks

What God wants, God gets

God wants voodoo
God wants shrines
God wants law
God wants organized crime
God wants crusade
God wants jihad
God wants good
God wants bad

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets

TV Evangelist: Do you believe in a better day?
Do you have faith in a golden way?
If you do, then we must come together this day
Come together as one, united television audience
Brought together by the sound of my voice
United, united financially, united socially,
United spiritually, and all possible ways
Through the power of money
And the power of your prayers...

What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets

God wants dollars
God wants cents
God wants pounds, shillings, and pence
God wants guilders
God wants kroner
God wants Swiss francs

And God wants French francs

(Oui il veut des francs francais)

God wants escudos
God wants pesetas
Don't send lira
God don't want small potatoes
God wants small towns
God wants pain
God wants clean up rock campaigns
God wants widows
God wants solutions
God wants TV
God wants contributions

What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets

God wants silver
God wants gold

God wants his secret
Never to be told
God wants gigolos
God wants giraffes
God wants politics
God wants a good laugh

What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets

God wants friendship
God wants fame
God wants credit
God wants blame
God wants poverty
God wants wealth
God wants insurance
God wants to cover himself

What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets

What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants, God gets
What God wants, God gets; God help us all
What God wants...

Don't be afraid, it's only business
The alien prophet sighed
The vulture and the magpie
Took the cash box from its hook
The monkey in the corner wrote
The figures in his book

Crazed, the checkout lady's fingers

Flash across the till
The captain posts
The menu for the day
And in banks across the world
Christian, Moslem, Hindu, Jew,
And people of every
Race, creed, color, tint, or hue
Get down on their knees and pray
The raccoon and the groundhog
Neatly make up bags of change
But the monkey in the corner
Well he's slowly drifting out of range

Christ, it's freezing inside
The veteran cries
The hyenas break cover
And stream through the meadow
And the fog rolls in
To his bottle of gin

So he picks up a stone
That looks like a bone
And the bullets fly
And the rivers run dry
And the fat girls sigh
And the network anchor persons lie
And the soldier's alone
In the video zone
But the monkey's not watching
He's slipped out to the kitchen
To pile the dishes
And answer the phone

Wait 'til the sun shines Nellie
And the clouds are driftin' by
We shall be happy Nellie
by...
