A grizzly scene on my electron beam |
|
Told a story about human rights |
|
So all of king's horses and all of king's men |
|
Had a riot for two days and nights |
|
Well, city exploded but the gates wouldn't open |
|
So the company asked him to quit |
|
Now everybody's equal just don't measure it |
|
Well, Hanson did it to Hester |
|
And Mark David did it to John |
|
And maybe Jack did it to Marilyn |
|
But he did it to South Vietnam |
|
For beauty and glory |
|
For money, love and country |
|
Now everybody's doin' it |
|
Don't do that to me |
|
A bitter debate and a feminine fate |
|
Lie in tandem like two precious babes |
|
While former gets warmer |
|
It's the latter that matters |
|
Except on the nation's airwaves |
|
And custodians of public opinion state facts |
|
After vainly discussing her rights |
|
Lay hands off her body |
|
It's not your fuckin' life |
|
Now I don't know what stopped Jesus Christ |
|
From turning every hungry stone into bread |
|
And I don't remember hearin' how Moses reacted |
|
When the innocent first born sons lay dead |
|
Well, I guess God was a lot more demonstrative back |
|
When he flamboyantly parted the sea |
|
Now everybody's prayin', don't pray on me |
|
Tell everybody prayin', don't pray on me |
