Coexist on earth as it is in…

Here on earth, for as long as Ever
Everyone fights to prove “what’s right”
But I wonder if I should tell them
What I know is in my heart…
All our God’s like to party
And it’s been that way from the start!

Buddha’s playing on the Bongos
While God and Allah tell their jokes
And the one whose name can’t be spoken
Laughs so hard he almost chokes

Mother Earth and Sister Mary dance while reading poetry
Gandhi watches chin in hand pondering all possibility
Pagans plant aromatic gardens, blooming with all that delights the eye
While Wiccan’s stir the soup for dinner and Jesus makes the apple pie

Krishna, Shiva, Vishnu and Ganesha
And their 300 and 33 million friends
Hold a class in Paradise yoga making up all the latest bends

The monks are passing out the ale, the orange robes, the honey wine
And the rabbi’s stoke the blazing fires to light the charcoal for hookah time.
Mother Teresa smiles at everyone finally feeling no more pain
While all the saints are playing poker and even trying to “win” in vain.

Confucius passes the peace pipe while White Buffalo Lady sings a song
And Zoroaster gets a tattoo, wondering why he waited so long
In my heart I see it clearly, all the deities get along
In my heart I know it truly all religions do belong

Paradise, Sanctuary, Heaven, Hell,
Really, who gives a damn?
What I believe is way more fun
Then killing others in the name of them

All are healing, all are healthy
All promote the way of love
And when I die I hope to party with the greatest gods above!
