God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind).

 

Randy Newman

Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why

For if the children on Israel were supposed to multiply

Why must any of the children die?

So he asked the Lord, and the Lord said:

"Man means nothing, he means less to Me

Than the lowliest cactus flower or humblest yucca tree

Chases round this desert 'cause that's where I'll be

That's why I love mankind."

Yes, I like that song he nails it.

It was hardly a post though.
Even Robert is writing better stuff - although he does delete them soon after writing them (guilty conscience. He should watch Rake series 4).

"I like the key change near the end from a sad minor to a happy major."

Are you sure about that Rob?
