What Is God?
I was just sitting there one morning
The sun beaming through the windows
When I noticed my reflection
Staring at me through the cheerios
In my big sleepy eyes
I began to glimpse my spirit
Then came the faintest voice
I almost couldn’t hear it
It said, “Is there a God? Where is God? What is God?
Everybody knows, nobody knows, isn’t it odd?”
I met a flower hippie
She hugged me, so I thanked her
I asked her, “What is God?”
She replied, “Mother Nature”
So I went camping
I asked a mathematician
At the prestigious university
He tilted his spectacles
And he said, “Infinity”
So I started counting
I asked a priest
Who said, “Father, Son and Holy Spirit”
So I proposed a plan
But he didn’t like to hear it
I got some boxed liquor with my dad
And we poked holes in it
I asked a Buddhist monk
That I met in a sauna
”How can I meet God?”
He said, “You must find Nirvana”
So I bought Teen Spirit
I searched for a Rabbi
Until I finally found one of them
I asked him, “What is God?”
He replied, “Hashem”
So I said, “Bless you”
I found a Hindu person
And couldn’t hide my excitement
I asked her, “Where is God?”
She said, “Find enlightenment”
So stared into a flashlight
I asked a Tantra Master
She said, “It’s something felt, not shown
It’s the best orgasm”
So I drove straight home
And did something private
In my weekly appointment
I inquired to my shrink
She wrote something down
Then said calmly, “What do you think?”
So I rambled on and on and on
I said, “Is there a God? Where is God? What is God?
Everybody knows, nobody knows, isn’t it odd?”
I asked an owl
Just to see what it would do
It blinked a bunch of times
Then finally said, “Who?”
So I repeated the question
I asked a guy at Burning Man
Who was tripping on acid
He grinned real wide
And exclaimed “You are, kid!”
So I looked in the mirror
And then took some acid
I asked an atheist
And he answered, “Nothing”
So I stopped asking him
I asked a holy shaman
She said, “Here take this drink”
So I gulped it down quickly
Then threw up in the sink
And then shat myself
I asked a little girl
Who was only five years old
With food still in her mouth,
She said, “I don’t know”
She was the only honest person
I went home disheartened
But decided to ask my cat
He just glared at me
So I stared right back
I think he might be God
Yeah, I’m pretty sure he’s God
Is there a God? Where is God? What is God?
Everybody knows, nobody knows, isn’t it odd?
Oh is there a God? Where is God? What is God?
Everybody knows, yet nobody knows, isn’t it odd?
