Big Country
God’s Great Mistake (Alternate Version)
I believe that democracy was meant to keep us free
I believe that Jesus Christ was who he’s meant to be
I believe a living Elvis will soon appear on my TV
For there’s a reason for the choices we make
We’re all a part of God’s great mistake
I know we have a future out beyond the stars
I know that there are farmers who were taken off to Mars
I know there is a thing from outer space kept in a big glass jar
Well there’s a reason that we fall for the fake
And there’s a reason for the choices we make
We’re all a part of God’s great mistake
I believe in all those people having unprotected sex
I believe that I will die with or without that cigarette
I believe we all should slow right down
And stare at every car we wreck
For there’s a reason for the choices we make
And there’s a reason that we fall for the fake
Yeah there’s a reason for the choices we make
We’re all a part of God’s great mistake
