We want a god we can touch
We want him to see, but not notice much
We want him to speak, but not dress us down
We pray his protection – object to inspection
We like a world made for us
We’ll seek the peace ‘til it becomes a fuss
We like the garden – we love our freedom
A walk in the park – Keep God in the Ark
We want a god we can make
A mode of devotion we can fake
We launch religions as if clay pigeons
And then we shoot ‘em down over the heart of town
We like a contract we can kill
We love to hire and fire at will
More colorless blood we can spill
Cut ties and talks – keep God in a box
If you’re on the fence, you’re of no consequence
No one is fooled or awed by such a puny god
We’d have our mysteries explained
We’d love our power unrestrained
Almost as much as our god contained
Secure the locks – keep God in a box
