Dear God Lyrics

Dear God

Your river nymphs have desk jobs

They're meant to be dancing in the streams

Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be

You're ashamed

The same sensibilities

Reticent

Reticulated

So hung around your hurricane breath

Scared to half life by your impending

That manna is the spirit of Euphrates

While shambling your xylophone up 15 stairs

The Pleiades have marked you for the waning

In the prince's chambers they have laid her bare

Broken plastic as maya

Plato's shadows and fire

Your eyes and every kaleidoscope are kissing

Holding tiny hands precisely

They wont sell it we ain't buying

I can't find the blame

It's forgiven

Your perversion is only human

Grown malignant from contusion

Dear God

Dear God

Your river nymphs have desk jobs

They're meant to be dancing in the streams

Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be

Two plates

It's late

Take your diazepam

Reel a spirit from the mausoleum

In church as Catholics eat the wafer

Transfiguring Christ from the paper

Above the door an electric fly zapper

Remind me priest

All creatures great and

Robyn said it's on account of all the corpses

A little tactless to tell the mourners

But I'm still stewing from the holy man

Taking sides in a war with no sides

I'm not religious on account of my own cult

But I'm pretty sure if Jesus saw this he'd bolt

And now

Reluctant to the alter

Before the bleaching wind

I take off everything

Dear God

Dear God

Your river nymphs have desk jobs

They're meant to be dancing in the streams

Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be
