in a cave there lives a man alone
silently staring at the phone
waiting for god to call
but god won't call at all
next to the man a cat sits purring
outside the cave the day is stirring
the day is new, the day is great
and still the man just sits and waits
the man has children
they bring him food
he has 7 wives depending on his mood
the wives come to him each in turn
and turned away with no concern
their love doesn't mean a thing
when any minute the phone could ring
though the world has seen joy and tears
he has sat for 30 thousand years
and he'll sit there till the end
comes rushing forth, a long hot wind
