God Is A Real Estate Developer lyrics by Michelle Shocked
God is a real estate developerwith offices around the nation
They say one day, he'll liquidate
his holdings up on high
I say it's all speculation
He may be an absentee landlord
and this may be a low rent universe
The roof may need repairs
but at least the floor is there
And the rent is not due till the first
So save one last dance
for the Savior
when that final Hail Mary is said
Life is a dance hall
That's why we've got all those
angels dancing 'round
with pinheads, yeah
The Lord Almighty Limited
and his chosen elect
Sit on the Up on High Development Board
Quoting the Bible as they hoard
The Good Book has a new look
I suspect
So save one last dance
for the Savior
when that final Hail Mary is said
Life is a dance hall
That's why we've got all those
angels dancing 'round
with pinheads
So save one last dance
for the Savior
when that final Hail Mary is said
Life is a dance hall
That's why we've got all those
angels dancing 'round
with pinheads
