God Made the Possum Songtext
von Tim White

When God created this old world
There′s something you should know
He made all the animals
Some fast and some real slow

He made some with wings and feathers
Some with hide and hair
Some are mighty common
And others awfully rare

He thought he'd used up all his parts
But he found that he still had some
He took the spares and made one more
And he called it the Possum

He took the head and tail from a big ol′ rat
The body from a porcupine
He removed the quills, put in some hair
And he said that looks just fine


Of all the things that he's created
Some of them quite awesome
It's unique in all the world
This critter called the Possum

When you hear him in your trash at night
Or underneath your floor
Don′t kick or scream or lose your cool
Or be afraid anymore

It′s quite possible the things he does
You might consider dumb
But remember God created him
This thing we call the possum

He took the head and tail from a big ol' rat
The body from a porcupine
He removed the quills, put in some hair
And he said that looks just fine

When God was finished with this job
He said "I′m pleased with what I've done"
There′s nothing in this whole wide world
To compare with the Possum


He took the head and tail from a big ol' rat
The body from a porcupine
He removed the quills, put in some hair
And he said that looks just fine

When God was finished with this job
He said "I′m pleased with what I've done"
There's nothing in this whole wide world
To compare with the Possum
