Elton John - If There's a God in Heaven Songtexte

Torn from their families
Mothers go hungry
To feed their children
But children go hungry

There's so many big men
They're out making millions
When poverty's profits
Just blame the children

If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
If he can't hear the children
Then he must see the war

But it seems to me
That he leads his lambs
To the slaughter house
And not the promised land

Dying for causes
They don't understand
We've been taking their futures
Right out of their hands

They need the handouts
To hold back the tears
There's so many crying
But so few that hear

If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
If he can't hear the children
Then he must see the war

But it seems to me
That he leads his lambs
To the slaughter house
And not the promised land

If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
If he can't hear the children
Then he must see the war

But it seems to me
That he leads his lambs
To the slaughter house
And not the promised land

If there's a God in heaven
Well, what's he waiting for?
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?

If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?

If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for?
