Star lyrics

We go waiting for the stars

to come showering down

from Moscow to Mars,

universe falling down.

You got to look real hard.

There's a fiery star

hidden out there somewhere.

Not the satellite of love,

but a laser

shooting out its shiny tongue there.

God is love, God is war.

TV preacher, tell me more.

Lord, redeem me, am I pure?

Pure, as pure as heaven.

Sent you money, sent you flowers,

coulda worshipped you for hours.

In whose hands are we anyway?

Go waiting for the stars

to come showering down

from Moscow to Mars,

universe falling down.  

You got to look real hard.

Is it in your heart?

Yeah, it's in there somewhere.

The power wrapped in your palm,

show it to me.

Hit them with your wrath and thunder.

What's your pleasure?

Tell it to me.

How did you know?

Show your beauty.

In you somewhere, somewhere in me.

Pure, as pure as heaven.

Sent you money, sent you flowers,

coulda worshipped you for hours.

In whose hands are we anyway? 

Yee-haw!

Rolling along through a rose-coloured glow,

the city looks pretty in pink.

Armageddon is here!

Did you ever have a lover

leave you for another

and take your love and kisses for granted?

Never to discover

war is not the answer,

leave you only disenchanted.

God is love, God is war.

TV preacher, tell me more.

Father, help me, am I pure?

Pure, as pure as heaven.

Sent you money, sent you flowers.

coulda worshipped you for hours.  

In whose hands are we anyway? 

Go waiting for the stars

to come showering down

from Moscow to Mars,

universe falling down.  

Waiting for the stars

to come showering down

from Moscow to Mars,

universe falling down.

Go waiting for the stars

to come showering down

from Moscow to Mars,

universe falling down.
