GOD IN A CUP

Land 'o' Goshen! What is this - Celestial Sweet Elixir?
Divinity reveals itself at the bottom of my mixer!
 
 
Ev'ry day -- 'bout half-past-seven
I take some medication -- mmm! a little taste of heaven!
And soon before I know it -- life's really lookin' up.
Am I blind or did I just find -- God in a cup!
God in a cup! God in a cup! So hard to believe - I found God in a cup!
 
 
Now you may ask me -- What did I drink?
Did I get it from my doctor? Did I get it from my shrink?
All I really know is -- I could never give it up!
Just one sip 'twixt cup and lip, it's God in a cup!
God in a cup! God in a cup! So hard to believe - I found God in a cup!
 
I don't mean to be irreverent; I don't mean to be obtuse.
Who would think such a de-vine drink
Leads to substance abuse!
It's the way to salivation -- A prophecy come true.
It'll make a true believer out of you!
 
 
It's plain to see when you look at me -- you still have some doubts.
But keep the faith and you will see the Light I'm talkin' 'bout.
Remember this next time you think that you're above it all:
God is found in places great and small !
 
 
 
It's so clear to me now -- It's like a revelation!
It's the true drug-of-choice For the entire nation.
Before we all just fade away, It's time to Wake Up!
In a demitasse or a tall cool glass, it's God in a cup!
God in a cup God in a cup
So hard to believe -
I found God in a cup!
