This only has 20, 904. Considering what manure gets over 1 million hits, that's depressing.

Cain slew Abel Seth knew not whyFor if the children of Israel were to multiplyWhy must any of the children die?So he asked the LordAnd the Lord said:Man means nothing he means less to meThan the lowliest cactus flowerOr the humblest Yucca treeHe chases round this desert'Cause he thinks that's where I'll beThat's why I love mankindI recoil in horror fro the foulness of thee>From the squalor and the filth and the miseryHow we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer meThat's why I love mankindThe Christians and the Jews were having a jamboreeThe Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TVThey picked their four greatest priestsAnd they began to speakThey said, "Lord, a plague is on the worldLord, no man is freeThe temples that we built to youHave tumbled into the seaLord, if you won't take care of usWon't you please, please let us be?"And the Lord saidAnd the Lord saidI burn down your cities-how blind you must beI take from you your children and you say how blessed are weYou all must be crazy to put your faith in meThat's why I love mankindYou really need meThat's why I love mankind
