None it is actually a reference to Bob Dylan's song "Like a Rolling Stone". The song was written by Eric Bazilian who was a member of the group The Hooters and also the co-author of the song Time After Time sung by Cyndi Lauper. Basilian says he is not religious and despite people trying to put religious meaning into it he never intended it to be a religious song.
Here are the actual lyrics:
One of Us
If God had a name
What would it be?
And would you call it to his face
If you were faced with him
In all his glory
What would you ask
If you had just one question?
Yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
If God had a face
What would it look like?
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints and all the prophets
And yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome
Yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rollin' stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome...
