It's A Miracle Songtext / Lyric

Miraculous you call it babe

You ain't seen nothing yet

They've got Pepsi in the Andes

They've McDonalds in Tibet

Yosemite's been turned into

A golf course for the Japs

And the Dead Sea is alive with rap



Between the Tigris and Euphrates

There's a leisure centre now

They've got all kinds of sports

They've got Bermuda shorts

They had sex in Pennsylvania

A Brazilian grew a tree

And a doctor in Manhattan

Saved a dying man for free



It's a miracle

It's a miracle

It's a miracle

Another miracle






By the grace of God Almighty

And the pressures of marketplace

The human race has civilized itself

It's a miracle



We've got a warehouse of butter

We've got oceans of wine

We've got famine when we need it

We've got a designer crime

We've got Mercedes

We've got Porsche

Ferrari and Rolls Royce

Yeah

We've got a choice



She said meet me

In the Garden of Gethsemane my dear

The Lord said Peter I can see

Your house from here

An honest man

Finally reaped what he had sown

And a farmer in Ohio has just repaid a loan



It's a miracle

It's a miracle

It's a miracle

Another miracle



By the grace of God Almighty

And pressures of marketplace

The human race has civilized itself

It's a miracle



We cower in our shelters

With our hands over our ears

Lloyd-Webber's awful stuff

Runs for years and years and years

An earthquake hits the theatre

But the operetta lingers

Then the piano lid comes down

And breaks his fucking fingers

It's a miracle
