God Don’t Make No Trash

[SISTER CHANTELLE, PETER, spoken]
You don't have to say another word
You just listen to me
Sometimes it seems—
You don't have to say another word
Just listen to me

[SISTER CHANTELLE]
When God sits on his mighty throne
And says "What shall I make today?"
He don't grab a drawing board
There ain't no mistakes, the man don't play
He simply opens up his heart
Out come tumbling works of art
God don't make no trash

[PETER, SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
That's nice of you to say, but I—
Come on, baby, shut up

God don't make the same, you see
Or everyone would look like me
People need to stop and think
It ain't a rainbow without the pink
Ignit folk playing judge and jury
They're the one that's gonna know God's fury
'Cause God don't make no trash

[PETER, spoken]
I'm going to be late, so—

[SISTER CHANTELLE]
Boy, you better believe it
That God is on your side
He'll be your strength, your rock, your truth
Your everlasting guide
Boy, you better believe it
Some folks will act the fool
So caught up with hate
That they forget the golden rule, yeah
Boy, you better believe it
You're who you need to be
'Cause love is love, love is truth, love is God
And love will set you free

People point a finger
You feel free to point it back
Two folks want to fall in love with no one hurt
What's wrong with that?
God is love, all the time
Search your heart and I think you'll find
That God don't make no trash!

And if you're wondering why I'm a fan
It's 'cause there's a black woman inside the soul of every gay man
God don't make no
God don't make no
God don't make no trash

[PETER, SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
Everything is just so confusing
Peter...

[SISTER CHANTELLE]
(sung)
Nobody has all the answers
Remember the message well
If you hide from yourself
Be someone else for someone else's sake
That would be the greatest mistake
(spoken)
Now, say goodbye
And, Peter, remember
God's got your back
And so do I
