This one started out with the lyrics. The idea took form while I read books by Schleichert, Dawkins etc. I wrote the lyrics during a Saturday morning class in Brussels in March 2008 after three hours sleep. The music took shape much later (when I was back in Germany) and I finally recorded it all in early August that year. There’s drums, guitars (acoustic ones for the refrain, electric ones for the rest), keyboards (organ, synth, bass, piano, and the drums in the refrain), vocals, a shaker, and some noises from my record player.

Noah built a mighty ark – therefore God exists
The day is bright, the night is dark – therefore God exists
Politicians never lie – therefore God exists
Life is just and pigs can fly – therefore God exists
Jesus made the blind man see – therefore God exists
They play my song on the MTV – therefore God exists
There is a chip inside my brain – therefore God exists
One day I’ll meet Shania Twain – therefore God exists
If God was one of us I would call him Stephen
If God was one of us I would look her in the eye

The Bible says the earth is flat – therefore God exists
It takes one step to cross a gap – therefore God exists
A madman shot John Lennon dead – therefore God exists
I just want Beck in your head – therefore God exists
If God was one of us I would call him Stephen
If God was one of us I would look her in the eye

3.14159 – therefore God exists
A quota sample will do fine – therefore God exists
My favourite drinks are cherry smoothies – therefore God exists
Michael Bay makes brilliant movies – therefore God exists
Piper Perabo cut her hair – therefore God exists
May I sit into your chair?
