If I was god I would hide in space,
tell everybody that I died,
tell them I never tried, skip the truth,
behind the curtain is another lie;

If I were god I would go back to day one,
Tell romeo not to drink the poison and juliet
you just met this kid, put away your knife,
I'd teach Shakespeare how to write a love story,
yeah, uh, yeah, uh, yeah, uh, K.

If I were god I'd be a deadparent,
I'd leave the planet and never come back.
As a deity I am a hack, and a poor artist;
I've made creatures so heartless,
watching as these flames grow larger,
they pray to me like "father,
you said if a poem rhymes it makes you a sap."

Do as I say, not as I do, and never as I act;

If I were god I'd abandon my creation,
I've seen the richest nations turn men into rapists
leave women with discolored faces,
we're all swallowing words that are now wasted,
you wanna pray but you can't say ****, uh,
yeah, uh, yeah, uh, yeah, uh, k.
