PEOPLE

    (you know)
People like pie and ice cream and people like rock and roll  
People like girls and boys, high-tech toys 
And make a lotta noise when the home team wins
Or loses, as the case may be 

          And nobody really knows, nobody really knows 
          Nobody knows why God cares about people 

Well, people like expensive clothes, people like celebrity stars 
Photographs from Mars, fast cars, pick fights in bars 
And like to show off their scars just to prove it 
Or not, as the case may be 

          And nobody really knows, nobody really knows 
          Nobody knows why God cares about people 

   [ bridge ] 
People tell tall tales, avoid stepping on snails 
Wag puppy-dog tails, save trees and the whales                                                 
While far too often we fail to get along with each other 

People can be cool and people can be low and mean
We can be good and bad, happy and sad 
And often as not somewhere in-between
We apologize, as the case may be 

          And nobody really knows, nobody really knows 
          Nobody knows why God cares about people 
  
          Yeah nobody, nobody really knows
          And the mystery just grows and grows 
          Nobody knows why God cares about people
          Um um um, cares about people
