The dice was rolled the night Allah made you
Always thought you were the golden one
So why have you got nothing better to do?
Delay the future, delay our future
God loves a winner
God pays for dinner
God hates all you sinners
God loves a winner
You always looked like such a lovely man
If you're confused, maybe ask someone
Because when you speak another's heart in your hands
And that's the future, if there's a future
Did you ever believe in love?
What the hell were you thinking of?
You sure you didn't dream this up?
God loves a winner
God pays for dinner
God hates all you sinners
God loves a winner
'Cause we were
'Cause we were
Way past that then
Way past that now
If this works out I could run my own destiny (oh, yes you can)
Preach new sponsorships and sacred profits (oh, yes you can)
Kickstart a page for the age of new hypocrites (oh, yes you can)
Misjudge the world and everybody on it
Did you ever believe in love?
What the hell were you thinking of?
You sure you didn't dream this up?
God loves a winner
God pays for dinner
God hates all you sinners
God loves a winner
The dice was rolled the night Allah made you
(Because we were)
Way past that then
Way past that test
Way past your best
Way past that now

Shihad è un gruppo musicale rock neozelandese formatosi a Melbourne, Australia nel 1988. Il gruppo, composto da Jon Toogood (voce), Phil Knight (chitarra), Karl Kippenberger (basso) e Tom Larkin (batteria), ha raggiunto una notevole popolarità in Nuova Zelanda con un sound caratterizzato da sonorità grunge e alternative rock. Tra i loro album più importanti figurano "The General Electric" (1992), "Churning the Sea" (1995) e "Killjoy" (1998). Dopo gli attentati dell'11 settembre 2001, il gruppo ha cambiato nome in Pacifier per un periodo di tre anni. Nel 2005 sono tornati al nome Shihad e hanno continuato a pubblicare musica fino ad oggi.
