Materialist |
| You’re obsesssed and distressed |
| Cause you can’t make any sense of the ludicrous nonsense |
| and incipient senescence |
| that will deem your common sense useless |
| this aint no recess! |
| I want to believe in you, but my plan keeps falling through |
| I knoe I have to face the harshnes, grin and bear the truth |
| And I have to walk this mile in my own shoes |
| (and I’m no fool!) |
| I’m materialist |
| a full-blown realist |
| (physical theorist) |
| and I guess I’m full of doubt |
| so I’m prone to hear you out and refuse |
| I’m materialist |
| There ain’t no fear in this |
| it’s for all to see, so don’t talk of hidden mysteries with me… |
| Mind over matter, it really don’t matter |
| If the street’s idle chatter turns your heart strings to tatters |
| Flatter hopes don’t flatter and soul batter won’t congeal to mend |
| a life that is shattered into shards |
| Was it in the cards? |
| The process of belief is an elixir when you’re weak |
| I must confess, at times I indulge it on the sneak |
| but generally my outlook’s not so bleak |
| (and I’m not meek!) |
| I’m materialist |
| a full-blown realist |
| (physical theorist) |
| and I guess I’m full of doubt, |
| but I’ll gladly have it out with you |
| I’m materialist |
| I ain’t no deist |
| it’s there for all to see, so don’t of hidden mysteries with me Like Rome under Nero, our future’s one big zero |
| Recycling the past to meet the immediate needs |
| And through it all we ramble forth with perservere and climb |
| Our mountains of regret to sow our seeds |
| I’m materialist |
| I’m materiliast |
| I’m materialist |
| I’m materialist (hold) |
