This was when I was in my Richard Dawkins + Militant Feminist phase. "My God is a lady" is about my loyalty to my mother. I've since expanded my views on the worth of men and maleness.
lyrics
I'm too busy, tryin' to modify reality
I don't have the luxury to play as you do
with the Basil Leaves
(Nothing you can say can turn me away from My God)
My God is a lady
She created and gave birth to me
My God doesn't look like you
But she wants you inside her anyway
(Nothing you can say can turn me away from My God)
Your God doesn't look like me
Doesn't have my breasts or my empathy
Your God looks as you do
Has a beard in the winter just like you
(Nothing you can say can turn me away from My God)
And oh, what about the ladies?
That you condescend to be with
That you condescend to be with
And oh, what about the ladies?
That you condescend to be with
You condescend to be with
