GOD IS A FUNNY GUY
God didn’t give me a good voice
But he filled my head up with a million songs
Infected me with melody
And beautiful things that I could never sing
Don’t worry the joke’s not lost on me
Certainly I can appreciate the irony
God is a funny guy
Makes me want to laugh until I cry
God didn’t make me pretty
But he filled my heart up with a poet’s yen
For blind romanticism
That rots into such sour cynicism
I can take a joke like anyone
No harm no foul, it’s all in good fun
God is a funny guy
Makes me want to laugh until I die
Sunshine, moonbeams and me
Blue skies, black night and me
Daylight, star bright and me
Not everything can turn out just right
God didn’t make me sociable
But he made me so goddamned likeable
So stupid people love me
Or maybe I’m just too misanthropic to see
Possibly the joke’s over my head
Maybe I should take back everything I said
God is a funny guy
Yeah but then again so am I
