---------------------------
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
How could you do this to me, God? Why are you taking my life yet again? I was just trying to get home to bring some food to my family, God. I'm the only chance they have.
No one's laughing at God when they're starving or freezing or so very poor.
They need me, God. We don't have a lot of money. I'm the only one who has a job, or a car. So why did you have to destroy it, God? Why did you destroy my car? And why do you keep trying to destroy me?
No one laughs at God when the doctor calls after some routine tests
Remember when you gave me MS, God? Remember when you made my family and friends watch me suffer? Remember when you made me die slowly?
No one's laughing at God when it's gotten real late and their kid's not back from that party yet.
Remember when you set me on fire? And nobody could find my body?
No one laughs at God when their airplane starts to uncontrollably shake
You take many lives, God.
No one's laughing at God when they see the one they love hand in hand with someone else and they hope that they're mistaken.
And you cause the world so much suffering.
No one laughs at God when the cops knock on their door and they say "We've got some bad new, sir,"
You torture me and my family with daily tragedy.
No one's laughing at God when there's a famine, fire or flood.
You could at least make my friends care.
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
Or when the crazies say he hates us and they get so red in the head you think that they're about to choke
God can be funny
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie
Who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
But… I guess I have to thank you for bringing me back. Every time.
God can be so hilarious
Ha ha
Ha ha
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one's laughing at God when they've lost all they got and they don't know what for
It hurts, God.
No one laughs at God on the day they realize that the last sight they'll ever see is a pair of hateful eyes
It hurts to be murdered. You've killed me so many ways.
No one's laughing at God when they're saying their goodbyes.
And a brief 'You Bastards' is all my friends can muster up in my memory. They don't care about me. You don't care about me. Nobody cares.
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
Or when the crazies say he hates us and they get so red in the head you think that they're about to choke
God can be funny
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie
Who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
But I still can't hate you. You give me too much.
God can be so hilarious
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
My eyelids feel so heavy, God. I know I'm dying. And I know that wherever I'm going next, it's not to you.
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
Why do you send me to Hell all the time, anyway?
No one's laughing at God in a hospital
No one's laughing at God in a war
I can feel myself drifting away, God. All alone in this empty room, Kenny will breathe his last.
No one's laughing at God when they're starving or freezing or so very poor
Do you feel bad, knowing that my siblings will starve tonight?
No one's laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
We're all laughing with God.
Goodbye.
