Elke woensdag van de maand augustus weer een ándere muziekvideo. De Canadese Crash Test Dummies danken hun bekendheid natuurlijk vooral aan het fraaie 'Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm' (1994), waarin het karakteristieke stemgeluid van zanger Brad Roberts alle ruimte krijgt. Maar vandaag gaat het om het nummer 'God shuffled his feet'. Over God die zich onduidelijk uitdrukt. In de videoclip is Hij een bedrieger, zoals de tovenaar in 'The Wizard of Oz'.
Meer mooie songs en dito videoclips zijn te vinden op de officiële website van de band. Zeker de moeite van een bezoekje waard.
God shuffled his feet
After seven days
He was quite tired so God said:
"Let there be a day
Just for picnics, with wine and bread"
He gathered up some people he had made
Created blankets and laid back in the shade
The people sipped their wine
And what with God there, they asked him questions
Like: do you have to eat
Or get your hair cut in heaven?
And if your eye got poked out in this life
Would it be waiting up in heaven with your wife?
God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him
So he said:"Once there was a boy
Who woke up with blue hair
To him it was a joy
Until he ran out into the warm air
He thought of how his friend would come to see;
And would they laugh, or had he got some strange disease?
God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him
The people sat waiting
Out on their blankets in the garden
But God said nothing
So someone asked him:"I beg your pardon:
I'm not quite clear about what you just spoke
Was that a parable, or a very subtile joke?"
God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him
