New Bible

Lyrics

If that nurse don't get you then her sister will With her Monday through Sunday dispenser of pills Don't know which of my habits will be my demise But there's more ways every day to betray what is wise It troubles the body, all this hidden pollution Making some kind of cancer a foregone conclusion Deep in my saddle bags I carry a rage For the greedy top feeders in their invisible cage Oh rise the proletariat Red banners unfurled Lets mend the failures of history And the manmade world Let's mend the failures of the profit system Let's rewrite the law books Quit following the path of least resistance Cuz that's what makes the river crooked Let's evolve into our true nature So little flowers can bloom In a world where relationship is sacred And sacrifice is assumed All for one and one for all Boom chicka boom boom boom There's just too many distractions Too many common attractions Too many screens fiercely flashing Their subliminal frame It's no wonder we all just go along Hungry as we are, just to belong It's no wonder we're all crazy It's a wonder we're not all the same You're gonna die way too early Or you're gonna live way too long It's kindof like it always was Except the quiet is gone Proving technology gets you nowhere If your intentions are all wrong And for clarity of vision We need a pulsing polarity of vision It is our singularity of vision That got us to this place Without equal and opposite forces We will only ever know a distortion We will never hit our resonant frequency We will never find grace Our roots are meant to be interwoven Not churned up and turned upside down Turn off your combustion engine And listen to the sound Get down off your tractor, mister And put your nose to the ground Out where the topsoil welcomes a heavy rain Out where the shoreline can handle a hurricane Out where God and nature are the same A mind can think clear And as far engines of evolution Cooperation trumps competition And if I were Darwin's girlfriend I would whisper that in his ear I think we should have a new bible One that only has two words I think we should have a new bible That just says "Mother Earth" And I think that men should stand down When women give birth If that nurse don't get you then her sister will With her Monday through Sunday dispenser of pills Don't know which of my habits will be my demise But there's more ways every day to betray what is wise
