John Pierce - It's A Miracle lyrics

[Verse 1] Miraculous you call it babe You ain't seen nothing yet They got Pepsi in the Andes They got McDonalds in Tibet Yosemite has been turned into a golf course For the Japs And the Dead Sea Is alive with rap Between the Tigris and Euphrates There's a leisure center now They got all kinds of sports They got Bermuda shorts They had s** in Pennsylvania A Brazilian grew a tree And a doctor in Manhattan Saved a dying man for free [Chorus] It's a miracle It's a miracle It's a miracle Another miracle By the grace of God almighty And the pressures of the market place The human race has civilized itself It's a miracle [Verse 2] We got warehouses of bu*ter We got oceans of wine We got famine when we need it We got designer crime We got Mercedes, we got Porsche Ferrari and Rolls Royce Yeah We got choice She said meet me in the garden Of Gethsemane my dear The Lord said Peter, I can see your House from here An honest man, finally Reaped what he had sewn And a farmer in Ohio Has just repaid a loan [Chorus] It's a miracle It's a miracle It's a miracle Another miracle By the grace of God almighty And the pressures of the market place The human race has civilized itself It's a miracle [Verse 3] We cower in our shelters With our hands over our ears Lloyd-Webber's awful stuff Runs for years and years and years An earthquake hits the theater But the operetta lingers Then the piano lid comes down And breaks his f**ing fingers It's a miracle
