Lyrics Dead Sea - Hoodoo Gurus

Dead Sea

I saw God in the desert
In some burning bushes
I heard God on the mountain
In a cave of whispers
Moving over the water
Gathering the fishes
Watching sheep in the meadow
While the shepherds slumbered
I know that it really means nothing
I know that it never can happen
People reading the Bible
Like it’s holy scripture
Taking words out of context
Now devoid of meaning
Using heaven for hatred — almost universal
Ignorance is the Devil
Knowledge was the first sin
I know that it really means nothing
I know that it never can happen
Why won’t anyone listen
When the Prophet’s talking?
No more miracle-makers
Not since television
Damned to live in the present
This eternal moment
Blessed gift of existence
Clinging to a mystery
I know that it really means nothing
I know that it never can happen
I know
