lyrics

Man invented corners
Man invented corners
Man invented corners
God would have made a curve
Man invented mercy
Man made the Earth flat
Man invented corners
God would have made a curve
Now there's something to get backed into
Now there's somewhere to put the bed
I read what the mystic said
It's all a sleeper's dream
We find a hole to fill
We drill and we find a hole
It's all a sleeper's dream
A sleepers dream
Man invented corners
God invented curves
You should see the view
When I'm making love to you
Now there's something to get backed into
Now there's somewhere to put the bed
I read what the mystic said
It's all a sleeper's dream
It's all a sleeper's--
God would have if he could have--
But it's all a sleeper's dream
