Lyrics to isgodaman by Arthur Comics? / The Snivelling Shits

That's a new one to me.

its an old punk song from '77. snarling ironic, i love it. its on a compilation album called streets, as arthur comics?, who later became (still doing this track too) the snivelling shits. (same album also got innocents by john cooper clarke, also brilliant, same style kinda.)

i wanted to paste in these lyrics in the game nobody understands game, but found that google couldnt track them down anywhere. so i tried to type em out myself, for the next guy looking ;-).

Yaay!! Found the missing bits where I had [??]'s still, things I couldnt decipher myself - found it on this page of the Talk Punk forum (on www.punk77.co.uk)

So here we go again:

'Isgodaman' - Snivelling Shits / Arthur Comix

Got a little problem
so help me if you can
The thing I wanna know is,
is god a man?
Does he get up in the morning
and go for a piss
Does he shave and strap
a digital watch on his wrist
and does the holy spirit
ever need to take a crap
does he go down with the flu
and does he ever have the clap
has he got a flat in Chelsea on a million year lease
jacking up with Mary Whitehouse and the Chief of Police

Is god a man?

Does he drive a red Bugatti
Does he go for girls with bite
or does he have to jerk himself
to sleep every night
Does God do the pools then?
Does he holiday in Spain
was he ever on a bus with a fiver and no change?!
Has he heard of rock 'n' roll
Is he wearing any pants
Would he really rather be Keith Richards
given half a chance?!

Is god a man?
Is god a man?
Does he do the horses
Is god a man?
Whats his favourite gear
Is god a man?
Does he like Chinese food then
Is god a man?
Does he beat up on queers??

Does he wear a leather jacket
or shop on Savile Row
Oooh save it for the papers
cause I just dont wanna know
See I gave the old bastard his cards years ago
Oh yeah! God's got the sack too!
Thats him, over there! At the back of the dole queue
The one in the suit and the south of france tan
But is he a man, is he a man, is he a man, is god a man
I dunooo ...

I've got no time for theology
My hobby now is human biology
No room in my life for golden beatitudes
I'm into the fruits of good old pulchritude
Look that one up
Its a big word ..

Streets is a fantastic album, most notable is the song Talk Talk by The Reaction, who later became ... Talk Talk.
Ps Slaughter and the Dogs are pretty good too.

The full lyrics

I Got a little problem
so help me if you can
The thing I wanna know is,
is god a man?
Does he get up in the morning
and go for a piss
Does he shave and strap
a digital watch on his wrist
and does the holy spirit
ever need to take a crap
does he go down with the flu
and does he ever have the clap
Has he got a flat in Chelsey on a million year lease
Shacking up with Mary Whitehouse and the Chief of Police

Is god a man?

Does he drive a red Bugatti
Does he go for girls with bite
or does he have to jerk himself
to sleep every night
Does God do the pools then
Does he holiday in Spain
was he ever on a bus with a fiver and no change?!
Has he heard of rock 'n' roll
Is he wearing any pants
Would he really rather be Keith Richard
given half a chance?!

Is god a man?
Is god a man?
Does he do the horses
Is god a man?
Whats his favourite gear
Is god a man?
Does he like Chinese food then
Is god a man?
Does he beat up on queers??

Does he wear a leather jacket
or Shop on Saville row
Oooh save it for the papers
cause I just dont wanna know
See I gave the old bastard his cards years ago
Oh yeah! God's got the sack too!
Thats him, over there! At the back of the dole queue
The one in the suit and the south of france tan
But is he a man, is he a man, is he a man, is god a man
