Partridge sings his disavowal of faith in the almighty in angry, accusing tones. That's it, you've hit the nail on the head. It doesn't make any sense. I'm a bit Dutch. I like things logical.
Partridge chuckles again, looks at Moulding, then leans across the table and whispers.
I suppose 'Dear God' is a frustration song. While the strain doesn't seem to show on the gentle, pastoral Skylarking , the split is acknowledged by the group. Two people wanting to deliver the baby, one wanting to do it one way and one wanting to do it another way. It's obvious that his tastes made the album. That's why things like 'Terrorism' didn't get on it.
