    It is indeed Cake that sings the song, but "We are Building a Religion" is not the title. It's called "Comfort Eagle."

    "Comfort Eagle"

    We are building a religion
    We are building it bigger
    We are widening the corridors
    And adding more lanes

    We are building a religion
    A limited edition
    We are now accepting callers
    for these pendant key chains...

    "Comfort Eagle" by Cake is listed on the soundtrack for Shallow Hal. Is it what you're looking for?

    Sorry. Me again. I just re-read the bottom of your post where you asked for the lyrics. Guess I should post all of them, huh?

    "Comfort Eagle"

    We are building a religion
    We are building it bigger
    We are widening the corridors
    And adding more lanes

    We are building a religion
    A limited edition
    We are now accepting callers
    for these pendant key chains

    To resist it is useless
    It is useless to resist it
    His cigarette is burning
    But he never seems to ash

    He is grooming his poodle
    He is living comfort eagle
    You can meet at his location
    But you better come with cash

    Now his hat is on backwards
    He can show you his tattoos
    He is in the music business
    He is calling you "DUDE!"

    Now today is tomorrow
    And tomorrow today
    And yesterday is weaving in and out

    And the fluffy white lines
    That the airplane leaves behind
    Are drifting right in front
    of the waining of the moon

    He is handling the money
    He's serving the food
    He knows about your party
    He is calling you "DUDE!"

    Now do you believe
    In the one big sign
    The doublewide shine
    On the bootheels of your prime

    Doesn't matter if you're skinny
    Doesn't matter if you're fat
    You can dress up like a sultan
    In your onion head hat

    We are building a religion
    We are making a brand
    We're the only ones to turn to
    When your castles turn to sand

    Take a bite of this apple
    Mr. corporate events
    Take a walk through the jungle
    Of cardboard shanties and tents

    Some people drink Pepsi
    Some people drink Coke
    The wacky morning DJ
    Says democracy's a joke

    He says now do you believe
    In the one big song
    He's now accepting callers
    Who would like to sing along

    She says, do you believe
    In the one true edge
    By fastening your safety belts
    And stepping towards the ledge

    He is handling the money
    He is serving the food
    He is now accepting callers
    He is calling me "DUDE!"

    Now do you believe
    In the one big sign
    The doublewide shine
    On the bootheels of your prime

    There's no need to ask directions
    If you ever lose your mind
    We're behind you
    We're behind you
    And let us please remind you
    We can send a car to find you
    If you ever lose your way

    We are building a religion

    We are building it bigger

    We are building

    A religion

    A limited

    Edition

    We are now accepting callers...
    For these beautiful...
    Pendant key chains


    Hope this is what you were looking for.

    You learn something new every day......
    For some reason I guess I always assumed the title. Thanks for the correction.

    Smile What is that song in Shallow Hal

    I was watching this movie and love the song that Hal and the large girls are dancing to in the bar. Can anyone help me with the name of the song? Thanks

    If your talking about the song where he's dancing with the hot red head and two other girls but they are actually large. Try "Phoenix, Too Young"
