0:06God so loved the idiot boy
0:10He gave him a pair of eyes to explore
0:16Gave him a pair of hands to destroy
0:20Any good thing that he found
0:25Put this kid in a candy store
0:30Let him run around until he drops
0:36Then just like a bull in a China shop
0:40Everything came crashing down
0:44God so loved the idiot boy
0:51That he filled the nights with dreams
0:54Till dusty sunlight beams
0:58Danced upon the floor
1:03Gave him a solo in the choir
1:07Where songs of wild desire
1:10Were all his voice was for
1:14Lo lo lo lo lo lo
1:18God so loved the idiot world
1:21He gave it his only son to kick around
1:27That was long ago in another town
1:31It could use a good laugh now
1:36God so loved the idiot world
1:54Gave him a solo in the choir
1:57Where songs of wild desire
2:01Were all his voice was for
2:05Lo lo lo lo lo
2:08God so loved the idiot boy
2:14He gave him coffee grounds in a paper cup
2:19And a reason everyday to keep getting up
2:23In a world that drags you down
2:28God so loved the idiot boy
2:34God so loved the idiot boy
2:39God so loved the idiot boy
God so loved the idiot boy He gave him a pair of eyes to explore Gave him a pair of hands to destroy Any good thing that he found Put this kid in a candy store Let him run around until he drops Then just like a bull in a China shop Everything came crashing down God so loved the idiot boy That he filled the nights with dreams Till dusty sunlight beams Danced upon the floor Gave him a solo in the choir Where songs of wild desire Were all his voice was for Lo lo lo lo lo lo God so loved the idiot world He gave it his only son to kick around That was long ago in another town It could use a good laugh now God so loved the idiot world Gave him a solo in the choir Where songs of wild desire Were all his voice was for Lo lo lo lo lo God so loved the idiot boy He gave him coffee grounds in a paper cup And a reason everyday to keep getting up In a world that drags you down God so loved the idiot boy God so loved the idiot boy God so loved the idiot boy
