Jehova buried, Satan dead, do fearers worship Much and Quick; badness not being felt as bad, itself thinks goodness what is meek; obey says toc, submit says tic, Eternity´s a Five Year Plan: if Joy with Pain shall hang in hock who dares to call himself a man?
Go dreamless knaves on shadows fed, your Harry´s Tom, your Tom is Dick; while gadgets murder squawk and add, the cult of Same is all the chic; by instruments both span and spic, are justly measured Spic and Span: to kiss the mike is Jew turn kike who dares to call himself a man?
Loudly for Truth have liars pled, their heels for freedom slaves will click; Where Boobs are holy, poets mad, illustrious punks of Progress shriek; when Souls are outlawed, Hearts are sick, Hearts being sick, Minds nothing can: if Hate´s a game and Love´s a fuck who dares to call himself a man?
King Christ, this world is all aleak; and life preservers there are none: and waves which only He may walk Who dares to call Himself a man. |
