Musical Collective Identity

All we are: a bit of pop culture philosophy

-All we are is dust in the wind; Kansas

-You and me baby ain't nothin but mammals (so let's do it like they do it on the discovery channel); The Bloodhound Gang

-All in all is all we are; Nirvana

in other words, we're interpenetrating mammal dust :-)

God only knows

this is a weird expression

I heard the song "God only knows where I'd be without you"
and I switched to literal mode...
and the meaning changed drastically.

what's up with that? God doesn't know anything else??
if not, shouldn't we be saying "only God knows where I'd be without you"?
