The Rise And Fall of Intelligent Design |
| If I could have just one wish |
| Maybe for an hour |
| I wanna be a woman |
| And feel that phantom power |
| Maybe I’d wanna stick around for a while |
| Until my heart got broke |
| Maybe then I could find out if I’m a half decent man |
| Or if I’m just a joke |
| If I could be the first woman president |
| I’d take on air pollution |
| I’d walk the streets of Baghdad at dawn |
| To find the real solution |
| I’d bear my soul for the people to read |
| I’d make my secrets known |
| I’d rather really be assassinated first day in office |
| Or die somewhere alone |
| It’s no excuse to be obtuse |
| It’s no excuse to be deaf, dumb and blind |
| When evolution is a thing of no use |
| It likes to call itself intelligent design |
| So here’s the world in the palm of my hand |
| How come I’m feeling so tender |
| It’s a man’s world, I’ve heard it since birth |
| I’m out of touch with my gender |
| I wanna feed the hungry, I wanna heal the sick |
| I wanna stifle the causes of suffering and hate |
| I wanna know my enemy by the look in its eyes |
| I wanna stop on this madness before it’s too late |
| I don’t care if you think I’ve gone crazy |
| Messianic delusion is a back breaking crime |
| I’ve got a dog and a gold fish and a friend in the navy |
| Don’t know nothing about intelligent design |
| It’s no excuse to be brutal |
| It’s no excuse to be vile |
| It’s no excuse to wanna die for religion |
| I harm an innocent child |
| It’s no excuse to be a slick politician |
| When the whole New Orleans is drowning in brine |
| I’m not mistaken, it was Darwin’s position |
| That the whole new evidence is caused by intelligent design |
