God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind) - Etta James (埃塔·詹姆斯)[00:00:00]

Cain slew Abel Seth knew not why[00:00:10]

For if the children of Israel[00:00:18]

Were to multiply[00:00:22]

Why must any of the children[00:00:26]

Why must they die?[00:00:31]

So he asked and the Lord[00:00:34]

And the Lord said[00:00:37]

Man means nothing[00:00:42]

He means less to me[00:00:47]

Than the lowliest cactus flower[00:00:52]

Or the humblest yucca tree[00:00:55]

Chases 'round this desert[00:01:00]

'Cause he thinks that's[00:01:03]

Where I'll be[00:01:04]

That's why I love mankind[00:01:07]

I recoil in horror from the foulness of Thee[00:01:15]

From the squalor and the filth and the misery[00:01:24]

How we laugh up here in heaven[00:01:32]

At the prayers you offer me[00:01:36]

That's why I love mankind[00:01:40]

The Christians and the Jews[00:01:53]

Were having a jamboree[00:01:55]

The Buddhists and the Hindus[00:02:00]

The Buddhists and the Hindus[00:02:04]

Joined on satellite TV[00:02:05]

Picked their four greatest priests[00:02:08]

And they began to speak[00:02:12]

And they said[00:02:14]

Lorda plague is on the world[00:02:15]

Lord, no man is free[00:02:20]

The temples that we built to you[00:02:24]

Have tumbled down[00:02:27]

Fell into the sea[00:02:29]

Lord, if you won't take care of us[00:02:31]

Please, please let us be?[00:02:35]

And the Lord said[00:02:39]

And the Lord said:[00:02:43]

I burn down your cities[00:02:48]

How blind you must be[00:02:52]

I take you your children[00:02:56]

And you say how blessed are we[00:03:00]

You must all be crazy to[00:03:05]

Put your faith in me[00:03:09]

That's why I love mankind[00:03:12]

You really need me[00:03:18]

That's why love I love mankind[00:03:21]
