Miraculous, you called it babe
You ain't seen nothing yet
They got Pepsi in the Andes
They McDonalds in Tibet
Yosemite's been turned into a golf course
For the Japs
And the Dead Sea
Is alive with rap
Between the Tigris and Euphrates
There's a leisure center now
They got all kinds of sports
They got Bermuda shorts
ย
They had sex in Pennsylvania
A Brazilian grew a tree
And a doctor in Manhattan
Saved a dying man for free
(It's a miracle) it's a miracle
(It's a miracle)
(It's a miracle)
(Another miracle)
By the grace of God Almighty
And the pressures of marketplace
The human race has civilized itself
It's a miracle
ย
We got warehouses of butter
We got oceans of wine
We got famine when we need it
We got designer crime
We got Mercedes
We got Porsche
Ferrari and Rolls Royce
ย
Yeah, we got choice
She said, "Meet me in the Garden of Gethsemane, my dear"
The Lord said, "Peter, I can see your house from here"
An honest man finally reaped what he had sown
And a farmer in Ohio has just repaid a loan
(It's a miracle) it's a miracle
(It's a miracle)
(It's a miracle)
(Another miracle)
By the grace of God Almighty
And the pressures of marketplace
The human race has civilized itself
It's a miracle
ย
We cower in our shelters with our hands over our ears
Lloyd-Webber's awful stuff runs for years and years and years
An earthquake hits the theatre
But the operetta lingers
Then the piano lid comes down
And breaks his fucking fingers
It's a miracle
