God Him Pay

For this bread to eat, for that floor to sleep
The certificate to be born, and the granting to smile
For letting me breathe, let me be
God bless you

For the pleasure of crying and the "we are there"
For the joke at the bar and football to applaud
A crime for comment and a samba to distract
God bless you

On this beach, this skirt, the women here
Love shoddy quickly shave and from
On the sunday that is beautiful, novel, comic and mass
God bless you

Rum by grace that we have to swallow
By smoke, unfortunately, we have to cough
By scaffolding, pendants, we have to fall
On another day, agony, to support and assist
By grinding of the teeth, the town buzzing
And the cry demented that helps us escape
The woman mourner for the praise and spit
And the flies and maggots to kiss cover
And for the ultimate peace that will finally redeem us
God bless you.
