Bo Burnham - From God's Perspective lyrics

[Bo Burnham - From God's Perspective lyrics]

There's things I don't wanna
Be misconstrued in my act that I feel often
Are I don't want you leaving my
Show thinking that I think I
Know better than people
Or that I think that I'm
Better than people in
General, um okay, I just, wanted to
Put that out there uh
This is a song from the perspective of God

The books you think I wrote are way too thick
Who needs a thousand metaphors to figure
Out you shouldn't be a dick?
And I don't watch you when you sleep
Surprisingly, I don't use my omnipotence
To be a fucking creep

You're not going to heaven
Why the fuck would you think I'd
Ever kick it with you?
None of you are going to heaven
There's a trillion aliens cooler than you

You shouldn't abstain from rape
Just 'cause you think that I want you to
You shouldn't rape 'cause rape is a
Fucked up thing to do
Pretty obvious, just don't fucking
Rape people, please
Didn't think I had to write
That one down for ya

I don't think masturbation is obscene
It's absolutely natural and the weirdest
Fucking thing I've ever seen
You make my job a living hell
I sent gays to fix overpopulation, and boy
Did that go well

You're not going to heaven
Eat a thousand crackers, sing a million hymns
None of you are going to heaven
You're not my children
You're a bad game of Sims

You shouldn't abstain from pork
Just 'cause you think that I want you to
You can eat pork 'cause why the
Fuck would I give a shit?
I created the universe
Think I'm drawing the line at
The fuckin' deli aisle?

You argue and you bicker and you fight
Atheists and Catholics
Jews and Hindus argue day and night
Over what they think is true
But no one entertains the thought that maybe
God does not believe in you

You pray so badly for heaven
Knowing any day might be the day that you die
But maybe life on earth could be heaven
Doesn't just the thought of it
Make it worth a try?

My love's the type of thing that you have
To earn and when you earn it
You won't need it
My love's the type of thing that you have
To earn and when you earn it
You won't need it

I'm not gonna give you love just 'cause
I know that you want me to
If you want love then the love
Has gotta come from you

Thank you very much
