[verse 1]
god left me a message, on my phone the other day
he said ‘i need to speak to you, right away’
so i went down on my bike, just as quick as you like
just to see what it was he had to say

[verse 2]
he said ‘i need a revamp, a new look
i’m tired of just going by the book.’
he said ‘i need something new
and i was thinking maybe you
could help me,’ so i told him that i would

[verse 3]
i said ‘have you thought about changing your name?
spelling it with two o’s, playing the game?’
he just looked at me, and said ‘son, don’t you see?
whatever you call me, it’s the same.’

[verse 4]
‘well i know that some people
they’re thinking like this:
they want some kind of proof that you exist
so can’t you just appear, say “look i’m over here!”
then we’d all have to take notice.’

[verse 5]
he just smiled, and said ‘i know what you mean
get it out in the open, come clean
but it wouldn’t do somehow
i can see the headlines now:
“god’s real, but he’s mean” read all about it!’

i said ‘oh yeah, well i hadn’t thought of that
all kinds of people saying “what’s he playing at?”
you’d have to take the blame
for some big hurricane
and they could put you in prison for that.’

[verse 6]
he said ‘yeah, and i do miracles everyday
but they’re quickly forgotten, explained away
how can you believe, when it’s plain for all to see
that’s the crazy thing about faith!’

[instrumental]

[verse 7]
well, i was running out of ideas
i was feeling the heat
i was wracking my brains, but i had itchy feet
it’s not a lost cause, but it’s a ship without oars
and i’m gonna have to admit defeat

[verse 8]
so i just said ‘i’m sorry,’ i nearly cried
‘when i said i’d help you, i think i lied.’
he just said ‘don’t worry, i’m not in any hurry
i’m just happy that you tried.’
