The angels got together in
The Great Throne Room
Thought they'd pass some time
By pickin' a tune
Michael on guitar, Raphael on mandolin
And Gabe, he was the leader on the old violin

I think it was an elder said
"Whatcha gonna play?
Amazing Grace or how 'bout Happy Day"

The strings were all tuned and
They were tappin' their feet
But just when they were ready
To play the first beat
God walked in the room and
A hush filled the air
Gabriel put down his bow and
Moved down to second chair
It's not a bill that's up to be voted on
It became a law when He wrote it in stone
Number one in the list of His Big Ten
When He came to earth He said it again

It's been the same way since
The beginning of time
So don't be fooled into thinking
That it's not a crime
He made it plain and clear it's
Not a rhyme or a riddle
God don't play second fiddle

I once knew a man that
Was climbin' the ladder
His portfolio was all that mattered
He made lots of cash didn't give much away
His very best friend was his CPA
A beautiful wife, two girls, and a boy
But his IRA was his pride and joy

His own net worth became divine
At the altar of his bottom line
But then the market turned and
His bank account ran dry
Betrayed by his money God he just
Hung his head and cried

It's not a bill that's up to be voted on
It became a law when He wrote it in stone
Number one in the list of His Big Ten
When He came to earth He said it again
It's been the same way since
The beginning of time
So don't be fooled into thinking
That it's not a crime
He made it plain and clear it's
Not a rhyme or a riddle
God don't play second fiddle

No compromise, no way that, he'll concede
If He's gonna play at all
It's just got to be the lead so let him play

It's not a bill that's up to be voted on
It became a law when He wrote it in stone
Number one in the list of His Big Ten
When He came to earth He said it again

It's been the same way since
The beginning of time
So don't be fooled into thinking
That it's not a crime
He made it plain and clear it's
Not a rhyme or a riddle
God don't play second fiddle
