Seriously? | Reviewer: Dave | 12/29/08 I'm simply amazed at how many bible thumpers get pissed off at the mere mention of the three letter word; GOD. This song is great and the fact that everyone and their fuckin' grandma only listen to this (and other songs) because of shitty games like Guitar Hero makes me mad. And since when did we start referring to such God as "her" or "she"? I don't know about the rest of you that have read at least a line in the Bible (I, myself, can't even get past a page...), but last time I saw, God was referred to as HIM, not Her. Call me sexist or whatever, but I didn't write it. To the guy a couple pages back that said something about evolution and then backed up his claim with an episode of Family Guy... seriously? You're going to try to convince someone that they are wrong with a cartoon? And not even a good cartoon, at that. Think before you type, man. Last, I'm not athiest, but I don't believe in one true religion that gets you to Heaven (or paradise, val halla, etc.). Who's to say that the Islamic God and the Christian God aren't the same entity? I mean, yes it's interpreted differently, but it could be the same. Just stop making a big deal out of the word GOD or anything religious because you're all being a huge pain in the biblical ass. You think God wants a bunch of whiny peasants groveling after him 24/7 and treating the rest of his creations that don't share the same views like shit? No. So drop the shit and deal with it. It's creative reign and freedom of speech. If you can't deal with that then close your ears and eyes for the rest of your sad, pathetic lives until you see your God face to face. why | Reviewer: ha | 12/21/08 why is it that all over the internet i see people talking about this onel ine in a great song. it's music. enjoy it, please. these guys put their souls out there every time they make a song and all you care about is having something you can complain about. its a song | Reviewer: t bag | 12/15/08 you fuckers, its a song. put your deep meaning full hearts and souls together and do somrthing. too muxh shit worth worrying about in the world but no, hide behind a worthless point of view and feel important. you set of infertile fucks. hope your seed is discontinued. Idiots | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/9/08 Semiotics and metaphors, guys. The word 'God' might not even be a direct reference. For instance, and this is just one example, he could be referring to famous stars and popular figures as 'God's and them 'falling asleep on the job' is just them not taking responsibility for what they do wether it be in their talent, or how they act off-screen. It could be a reference, even, to our world leaders acting God-like but never acting as such and letting shit get the way it is. You guys need to think outside the box and chill out. lolreligion | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/14/08 When I take a look at the world now, I pretty much agree with Bellamy. God really has fallen asleep on the job, if you know what I mean. ;) Some people are way too easily worked up. It's just a song. I remember when people QQ'd over Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden without even looking at it closely. Besides, the line is a metaphor, and a very clever one at that. Let's stop this silly arguing and move on. oh for the love of peter pan.... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/11/08 this song is nothing more than someone voicing an opinion. that's it. why you all are making such a big deal about it is beyond me. honestly, this song shows musical genius and why everyone always has to comment about god in every song. I'm a christian, and yeah i have a strong conviction towards talking about god in the wrong way. it bugs me.alot. but the truth is, is that this band is obviosly not christain and they may or may not know that they are talking bad about god or not. again, people voice their opinions differently, they don't always know what they say and what the effect of what they say is. this song is simply a guitarist playing what they feel, and saying what they feel. you can't help what they say, that is what they feel. I get upset when people tell me my opinion is absolutely crazy, but you know what, i get over it. i think thats is what all you people need to do also. this is just retarded | Reviewer: David | 10/24/08 does anyone who is having a hissy fit over the lyrics to this song even take into account the significance of a possible metaphor? the song is about sticking up for yourself and your own rights and not to let someone else control you, the meaning of 'i'll show you a god who falls asleep on the job' could possibly mean that our leaders (the ones who we follow, hence the word 'god') aren't doing all they said they would for us, this metaphor could be used for alot of instances like the leaders who we as individuals follow and, if you want to be more literal, you could say muse is trying to say 'god doesn't do anything' personally you religious people who are complaining over this make me sick, all it shows is that you're unable to accept an aithiests views on the world or that you definitely can't interpret something as being a metaphor, you're not fighting for your faith, you're just looking to start a fight over something for no reason whatsoever apart from one possible aithiest song line in the song grow the fuck up you pessemists God | Reviewer: Alex | 10/28/08 Muse isn't the first or the last band to use God. It does not matter whether you believe in one or not. God is used in songs to signify something that isn't human! God is defined as a supernatural entity so when God falls asleep on the job, means that man is controlling everything and not even a prayer to something better than man can save them. Simple as that. Stop debating. coheed uses God in the same aspect even though there is a whole story behind their songs. This song is amazing and I can't believe you all focus on the God part rather than the meaning of the song. Pathetic. Brilliant Song! | Reviewer: D. Lawliet | 10/23/08 I love this song so much. Stop fighting, we are all here because we love this song, can't we just agree? Muse is so amazing. Stop fighting over TWO LINES in the ENTIRE six minute song. You do NOT need to argue.
