Doubting Thomas

Hey, if you really are who you say you are, then stop the war. You will save us, you say - really? then lead the way, hold the oppressors at bay. All tyrants forever vanquish, evil men from the earth vanish, the righteous do not punish. Start doing your job, damn it, your flock is taking a lot of hit, oh, man, you are blowing it. Come on, show your pretty face and save the tired human race, put the wicked in their place. Take away your people’s fears, wipe away their wasted tears borne all through the years. Don't just sit up there doing nothing while ancient Baghdad is burning, hurry! you've got to do something. So if you’re really a superstar, if you are who you say you are, then stop this senseless war!
