It came in the water
It came with the flood
It seeped into everything
That we couldn’t be rid of
We bathed in the fountains
And we played in the mud
We breathed as it rotted
It got into our blood
And all God’s children kept believing
All God’s children believed anyway
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
It was down in the basement
You were up on your throne
And while vegetation wasted
We were left picking the bones
But nobody complained
Fact they said it was right
So they all lit up torches
And marched into the night
And all God’s children kept believing
All God’s children believed anyway
All God’s children kept believing
All God’s children believed anyway
(Believed anyway)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
