God's Magic Finger Lyrics


Residents God's Magic Finger

It was a finger instead of a singer
It was a finger instead of a song
It was a finger instead of a singer

It was a finger instead of a singer
It was a finger instead of a song
It was a finger instead of a singer
It didn't stay too long

When I was having a party and wanted to hear a song
A disconnected finger appeared where it didn't belong
It floated above the floor and wrote something on the wall
No one could read the writing so someone was called

It was a finger instead of a singer
It was a finger instead of a song
It was a finger instead of a singer
It didn't stay too long

He said, my father was crazy with fingernails like claws
And that he ate grass with asses, then he paused
Then when he continued, he mumbled about his God

He said my days were numbered, so I started to nod
It's late now, I'm alone, still thinking about what I saw
Something woke me up, a strange noise out in the hall
I hear it again

It was a finger instead of a singer
It was a finger instead of a song
It was a finger instead of a singer
It didn't stay too long

It was a finger instead of a singer
(Finger, it was a finger)
It was a finger instead of a song
(It was a finger, a magic finger)

It was a finger instead of a singer
(Magic finger, magic finger)
It was a finger instead of a song
(Magic finger, a magic finger)
It didn't stay too long
