lyrics

If mankind wrote a letter, what would his people have him say?...Would he address it up to heaven and beg for all his people to be saved?...And, then would he get it back, the letter returned to sender...the postage not fully paid?...God's messenger...a miscreant...One chosen to deliver acts so ill-behaved...Don't you see...that mankind is a bag-lady...wandering city streets in search of heat or a bite to eat?...May she never go hungry...Or, so goes the scripture, but those words will never feed her...So, with the letter returned to sender...would the message left inside then be erased?...Or, would the words just be reversed and then message itself just increased?...For it's been said about God's work...that when it's not done by God it's done by people...There's a man standing outside those doors...He's banging on the window...begging, "People! People! People!...Don't you see that mankind is a bag-lady...wandering city streets?...She wakes in dreams...communicates in screams...and speaks to herself when she's lonely...but if there's one thing that she must learn...she must learn to feed herself....She must learn to feed herself...We must learn to feed ourselves.
