The Narcissist Cookbook
the answer
[Verse 1]
Well, I can hear the traffic
I can hear the people in their cars
All locked up in a panic
Wondering when life is ever really going to start
I think we're all just waiting for Jesus
To drop down on a wire and say
"Guys, it's me, you never will believe this
But God is a question
And we are all mathematicians
And I have run all the numbers
I've lifted the lumber
And we have the answer:
[Chorus]
"There is lovе in here
Therе is love in here
We don't have to be so scared all the time"
[Verse 2]
I can feel the pulsing
The universe is pumping like a heart
I guess that makes us bloodcells
Fighting off infection in the dark
I think we're all just waiting for Jesus
I think we're all just waiting for nothing
Because blood don't have a soul
It's just there to keep this old machine running
And if God is a question
Then you and me are just mathematicians
I think you're getting bored of me, mixing my metaphors
But I have the answer
[Chorus]
There is love in here
There is love in here
We don't have to be so scared all the time
[Verse 3]
I can see the future
At least the future coming up behind me
Slipping in between the cracks of all the ducks I've set up in a line
I think we're all just waiting for someone
To wrap us up in cellophane and send us off to somewhere warm
'Cause God is a question
And we are all mathematicians
Then I am writing this song just to speed things along
Until we have the answer
[Chorus]
There is love in here
There is love in here
I can see it, there is love in here
We don't have to be so scared all the time
