My God Is the Sun Lyrics
Far beyond the desert road
Where everything ends up
So good, the empty space
Mental erase, forgive, forgot
[Chorus]
Heal them, like fire from a gun
Kneeling, my god is the sun
Heal them with fire from above
Kneeling, my god is the sun
[Interlude]
(Ooh-ooh)
[Verse 2]
Well, I don't know what time it was
I don't wear a watch
So good to be an ant who crawls
Atop a spinning rock
(Beyond)
[Chorus]
Heal them, like fire from a gun
Kneeling, my god is the sun
Heal them with fire from above
Kneeling, my god is the sun
(Yeah)
Heal them, like fire from a gun
Kneeling, my god is the sun
See them kneeling?
Godless heathens
Godless heathens always want from the sky

From an interview with Josh Homme did with an Rock&Pop Interviewee in June 2013:
…and what about the first single from the album, “My God Is The Sun”? Do you take the sun as the deity and the healer?
I love words and I love how they work and look like. Some words are gorgeous and some aren’t. The sun is everything. You get it when you, for example, look at plants and they turn to it. And that is something unbelievably beautiful. And I have a son [a reference to sounding of words son/sun – editorial office note]. It’s not an coincidence that it’s a similar word. It should be something venerated, it should start right here.
So is your son the center of your universe?
Yes.
