our lame pride claims to know it all
our vain strides to control it all
we'll never see beyond the hall
if we can't find the door
outside the porter makes the call
to keep you in the balderall
and if you should grow old and fall
security's in store
so who could ask for more?
just do your job, have sex and eat
your life could not be more complete
and if you're good you'll get a treat
if not you'll end up poor
a homeless loon out on the street
or worse, defeated, and your feet
become the property of Crete
some island you'll adore...
it's all laid out for you
brain cops know what to do
they're gonna see you through
DON'T BELIEVE IT'S TRUE!
Think for yourself -- it's good to do
don't let others think for you
if it helps, get that tattoo
and brand this where you'll see it
(not on your butt, iddee-it!)
"Two things in life are true:
1. there is one God, and
2. psst, it's not you."
That's where your lapse will end
That's good judgement, friend.
So as you choose your way today
remember what the wisemen say,
"what is mind? it's no matter.
what is matter? nevermind."
break your eggs to make your batter
you can't change what's left behind
but make sure you do it righteous
can't unscramble scrambled eggs
if you could then, hey! you might just
have something between your legs
but you're sexually confused
taken for granted, lost, abused
what was special now seems boring
afterwards you hear the snoring
once you wore it all so proudly
now one hand is clapping loudly
as you take your wobbly bow
who is there applauding now?
who's your daddy, where's your friend?
this ain't how it has to end
you can know God's love and then
have a healthy regimen
faithful partners all agree
it's the only way to be
those ignoring wisdom's ways
end up wasting all their days
fun for the present is not worth death,
better to abstain from meth
or whatever gets you off
makes you kill, makes you cough,
the law of God is the law of Love
that much ratzville testifies of.
