God came to me in a dream
He said get down on your knees
I said, how can I be sure you’re God
Let me see two valid forms of I.D.
He got a birth record and a couple bills
I said, God, you’re as old as the hills.
You’re as old as the hills
You’re as old as the hills
God, you’re as old as the hills
He said you’ve got three wishes, make ‘em quick
I haven’t even had my orange juice
I said three wishes, that’s like the genie
Like in that skit by Lennie Bruce
You know about the genie in the bottle
Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce
Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce
Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce
Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce Lenny Bruce
God said, OK, I think you’re projecting
You just like saying his name
I said this dream is mine it isn’t yours
You may be God but this is my game
He said what is it you’re avoiding
He said please tell me what you want
What you want, what you want
What you want, what you want
God said, just tell me what you want
He said, all right, you’ve got three wishes
I said, OK I want more wishes
He said you can’t have that, I said, then let me live forever
He shook his head and started to scream
I said, If I didn’t know better,
I’d say you were taking over this dream
God’s taking over, God’s taking over
God’s taking over my dream
He said All right you’ve got one wish left
Ask for something, ask for thousands ask for millions
I said, OK, OK, OK, OK, you can keep your money
You can keep you precious mega billions
All I want’s a tennis court in the south of Spain
That comes with Venus and Serena Williams
Venus and Serena
Venus and Serena
That comes with Venus and Serena Williams
