What Are We Standing For |
An adventure in secular morality |
Shouldn’t be an insurrection to us all |
And the counterfeit political currency |
Shouldn’t stand there as a patriotic call |
Oh, the victory, oh, and hyperbole |
Justifies to vacant humanity |
And the babble that is drowning out the door |
Don’t what they’re standing for anymore |
Find some understanding for |
Those who kneel to implore |
Know just what they’re standing for |
What’s the lasting legacy |
Of the humanistic progress that we made? |
All the blood that’s spilled for someone else |
Is profit but will never be be repaid |
There’s the useless hope of the afterlife |
But it can’t dissuade all the toilets drive |
And the pious who are planning so much more |
Don’t what they’re standing for anymore |
Show some understanding for |
Those who can’t hope for more |
Know just what they’re standing for |
Oh-oh-oh, find some understanding for |
Those who kneel to implore |
Know just what they’re standing for |
There’s a sound in the attic |
Of memories erratic |
A firm resolution |
For an eternal constitution |
The bravery of self-defense |
Against the pull of ignorance |
And shudder to adore |
Those that don’t know what they’re standing for |
Find some understanding for |
Those who can’t hope for more |
Know just what they’re standing for |
Oh-oh-oh, be someone who’s standing for |
Take a knee on the floor |
Know just what you’re standing for |
