Gulliver’s Travels, ain’t written for kids
I’d say most grown-ups are too young to read it

The Oscar for best pic, should be renamed
To Best budget, simply best budget

Anything can be a piece of art
But things with a purpose, won’t bear that name

The eighties’ rock music was nobody’s fault
It was the drum plague, that deadly disease

If you want a scapegoat, it should be MTV
And the shift from sound to vision

Money should be sold at half price
Armies should always fight together, on the same side

The reason for war is, that evolution’s too slow
Too many Cro magnon chromosomes in orbit

Dictators fall like trees
Commies like spruce, fascists like pines

In the end they all fall
Spruce rot outwards, pines inwards

Religious conflicts are rarely religious
It’s always possessions, it’s always the land

Religious oppression is rarely religious
It’s usually cultural, local and cultural

Religious people think that they know
People of science, know that they think
And I know I stole that though

In lack of knowledge, have an opinion
The more experienced, the more in doubt
