Can you identfy the song lyric hinted at here? Read from left to right, from the top.

$\begingroup$ This is kinda scary... For the last two weeks or so, I had the exact same song in my head with the exact same top row in mind. $\endgroup$– QBruteMar 30, 2021 at 9:19

1$\begingroup$ @QBrute Perhaps the best song ever written about erotic woodcarving and frozen natto. $\endgroup$– ExalMar 30, 2021 at 9:28

I think it is:
"Wouldn't it be nice" by the Beach Boys.
With the translation:
WOODEN TEAT | BEAN ICE | SIF WEEK | HOOD | WEIGH CUP
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
Fixed now to be "Sif Week", since I just noticed they are all characters called Sif. Duh.
Oh, and slight extra:
The Beach Boys also sang "God Only Knows" which is the puzzle title!
And an edit note:
I realise that one word could be replaced by a "better" homophone, but it was purposefully edited to this to be as polite as possible... ^^;

$\begingroup$ And it wasn't my first version with fewer letters? :P I "cleaned it up" to this word, which is at least anatomically correct... if not quite as homophonic. ^^; $\endgroup$ Mar 29, 2021 at 5:16
