[Verse 1] Dear God it's me transmittin' from This tiny place I live in Harlem Oh Heaven we have a problem 'Cause we've lost all correspondence And there's no more prophets They've all been replaced with politics And they have your people hostage That's why I'm sending you this postage [Chorus] If you're listening Mr. U.F.O. Man Speak to Jesus tell Him we're on Earth and Things are worse than they have ever been now Father it's urgent we need you come down [Verse 2: John Ostby] Hey now, you're my father And I don't know what's out there So many of us are scared Hey now, we got people shooting people
We live in warfare I'm not talking nuclear I ain't got there yet [Pre-Chorus] Why we got intelligent mouths On Larry King with religious doubts While the rabbi and minister fuss sh** another one bites the dust So the yellow red black and white Send missiles in the dark of night Probably wanna stop but don't know how That's why Lord we really need you now [Chorus] [Verse 3] People around, if you feel our vibe ride Come on aboard there's enough room inside We're flying high where heaven hides Hope I see you on the other side [Chorus] [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Verse 3]
