    This historic and rare artifact was created on genuine plastic using heavy duty machinery, back in the Golden Era of Tangibility, when music lovers could hold physical objects (known as "discs") in their own two hands, and read lyrics—printed with real ink on real paper—to songs magically imprinted within the plastic of the disc itself. Long thought to be archaic and anachronistic, such CDs have been found to be wholly compatible with even the most modern of disc drives, and are playable on computers, DVD players, and even CD players. The stock of God Project CDs will not last at this irresistible price, so order now, order for friends, be generous, and be happy.

about

We like to take credit for everything, but we don't even know how we're doing the most basic stuff, like living, or digesting what we eat. We just can't stand giving God credit for anything, when in fact He's doing everything. Doggone it.

lyrics

I’m just a puppet on a string
I can’t do anything
I can’t jump, fly, dot an “i”
talk about the weather
pick a peck of pickled peppers or sing
I can’t do anything
I’m only just a puppet on a string

You keep me hangin’ around
And if You ever let me down
I’d be one disowned pile of bone
Better just scatter my ashes
all over the ground
You lettin’ me down would be like a
ghost leavin’ a ghost town

And if You left me all alone,
I’d lie around and moan
Without You liftin’ my lids
and doin’ what You did
I’d be livin in a dead zone
There’d be nobody home,
all of my keepin’ on
would be dead and gone

I’m just a puppet on a string
I can’t do anything
But give me a reason to walk and I’m walkin’
jump, and I’m jumpin’
talk and I’m talkin’
You’re the puppet king
and I’m only just a
puppet on Your string
