mike found god it's been so weird since mike found god now i just have a feeling that i don't measure up it seems so unfair everything comes his way suddenly he's drinking from the silver cup in the winner's circle yeah, mr. big shot just because god taught him all about fear and now i'm so jealous wish i could just let go like him and maybe let the big man just take it from here but it seems too easy too coincidental that all of these good things just happen to him he thinks he's really special and every little stupid good thing that happens to mike could never happen to jim cause he really really knows god not like all of us heathens i mean on some real mystic and personal level and he tells me i need him if i want to get to heaven he seems to know all about me about my sins and the devil says the world's gonna end and that we better all get ready that he's going to a mountain up in montana state and he's buying some guns and some ammunition says if i don't come with him that it'll be too late mike found god up in a little crowded bunker where they speak in tongues and think about the end and i'm back in the city watching all of that destruction wondering what happened to mike my friend... words and music by joe herbert, copyright 1998 |
