Bazooka Joe says angels guide my every move
And I believe him
Pesty knows that Joe don't lie
He calls the shots the way he sees them
So to this my life has come
There's meaning in a piece of gum
The world works in mysterious ways
Stuff in gutters, stuff in good books
Send me secret clues
Angels make the lights on my street
Blink the nightly news
We find convenient truth in whatever we choose
Bazooka Joe says angels guide my every move
And I believe him
Pesty knows that Joe don't lie
He calls the shots the way he sees them
Nothing further from the truth
Would make me less a psychic sleuth
The world works in mysterious ways
So to this my life has come
There's meaning in a piece of gum
The world works
The world works in mysterious ways
