Album: Live in NYC
Cain slew Abel, said knew not why
For if the children of Israel, were to multiply
Why must any of the children, why must they die
So he asked the Lord, and the Lord said
Man means nothing, he means less to me
Than the lowest cactus flower sitting
on the humblest yucca tree
Chases around the desert 'cause
he thinks that's where I'll be
And that's why I love mankind
I recoil in horror, from the foulness of thee
All from the squalor and the filth
and the misery
How we laugh up here in heaven at the
prayers that you offer me
And that's why I love mankind
The Christians and the Jews are having a jamboree
The Buddhists and the Hindus are
joining in on satellite TV
They pick their four greatest priests
and they began to speak
And they said Lord, a plague is on the world
Lord no man is free
The temples that we build to you are
falling down into the sea
Lord if you won't take care of us,
please please let us be
And the Lord said
I burn down your cities, how blind you must be
I take you and all of your children and you
say how blessed are thee
Now you all must be crazy to put your faith in me
And that's why I love mankind
You really need me
And that's why I love mankind
