Something from Nothing
Parody of "Nothing from Nothing" by Billy Preston
(Genesis 1:1; Hebrews 11:3; Revelation 4:11; Psalms 14:1, 53:1; Romans 1:18-23)

Something from nothing means something
You gotta have something -- that can cause something to be
Something from nothing means something
And God is that something
Least that's what it seems to me

I'm not tryin' to be your theologian
But ex nihilo is proof enough for me
I'm not tryin' to critique your science
But that's blindness if you won't just see -- uh huh -- hey

Something from nothing means something -- uh
And I'm not bluffin' -- believe you me - huh
Both Helium and Hydrogen
Had an origin in a source on top of these, yeah -- yes, Him!

LEAD

Something from nothing means something
You gotta ask one thing: Is it 'cause of G-O-D? C'mon, baby
Something from nothing means something
And God is that something
Check 11 Hebrews 3
That's right, babe -- ahh yeah

And God is that something
If you don't agree with me
You gotta think up something else
That can 'cause those things to be

Hebrews 11:3
By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that
what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
