★ Verse ★ Well Benji’s at the altar cuz he’s going into debt They say it’s in his lungs, but he never had a cigarette His sis fell off the wagon, and she’s getting a divorce Now they’re staying together, cuz she’s gotta put down the horse
So Benji got some praying, but some money might do more good And she’d put up a yard sale, if they still had a neighborhood Well she can’t see her children, and he can’t mow the lawn The Devil ate the flowers, and all the grass is gone
★ Chorus ★ When they look in the East, they do not find him there He’s at work in the West, but nobody knows where The smoke rolled up their dreams, and they watched as it unfurled God is in his heaven, all is right with the world
★ Verse ★ Well Margot’s off to college, thinking everything is gonna change She just can’t stand her hometown cuz they won’t call her by her name Her dad yells at the tv cuz they’re gonna take his guns And he’s cutting off his daughter cuz he wants her to be his son
So Margot got to Nashville, and Nashville got to her Some nights she hits the floor, and the room turns to a blur One day she had a breakdown and smashed a keyboard And all was forgiven, but The Devil did hit record ★ Chorus ★ When she looks in the West, she does not find Him there He’s at work in the East, but she does not know where They’ll let her be a moment, but won’t let her be a girl God is in his heaven, all is right with the world
★ Verse ★ Well Simon’s writing music, but he can’t sing for shit His heart is bleeding through, the five cracks in his fist He’s looking for her everywhere, and finds her in everything Then all the clouds pulled him down and hung him on a string
So Simon keeps a folder, the things she’ll never see He pictures her across from him, trying his green tea He gets stuck in the dreaming, but dreaming don’t come true The Devil drank the ocean, and gave him the Deep Blue
★ Chorus ★ When I look to the East, I do not find Him there He’s at work in the West, but I just can’t seem to care Well I fell on my sword, when I fell for the girl But God is in his heaven, all is right with the world God is in his heaven, all is right with the world
