Roger Waters What God Wants, Pt. 3 Lyrics

Don't be afraid, it's only business, the alien prophet sighed
The vulture and the magpie took the cash box from its hook
The monkey in the corner wrote the figures in his book

Crazed the checkout lady's fingers flash across the till
And the captain posts the menu of the day
And in banks across the world
Christians, Moslems, Hindus, Jews
And every other race, creed, colour, tint or hue
Get down on their knees and pray
The raccoon and the groundhog neatly make up bags of change
But the monkey in the corner, well he's slowly drifting out of range

Christ, it's freezing inside, the veteran cries
The hyenas break cover and stream through the meadow
And the vet rolls in, to his bottle of gin
So he picks up a stone that looks like a bone
And the bullets fly, and the rivers run dry
And the fat girls sigh, and the network anchor persons lie
And the soldier's alone, in the video zone
But the monkey's not watching, he's slipped out to the kitchen
To pile the dishes, and answer the phone

[Man on the phone (singing):] "Wait till the sun shines Nelly and the clouds are drifting by, we shall be happy Nelly forrrr... *monkey hangs up*"
