When I was young and they packed me off to school and taught me how not to play the game, I didn`t mind if they groomed me for success, or if they said that I was a fool. So I left there in the morning with their God tucked underneath my arm - their half-assed smiles and the book of rules. So I asked this God a question and by way of firm reply, He said - I`m not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays. So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares): before I`m through I`d like to say my prayers - I don`t believe you: you had the whole damn thing all wrong - He`s not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays. Well you can excomunicate me on my way to Sunday school and have all the bishops harmonize these lines - how do you dare tell me that I`m my Father`s son when that was just an accident of Birth. I`d rather look around me - compose a better song `cos that`s the honest measure of my worth. In your pomp and all your glory you`re a poorer man than me, as you lick the boots of death born out of fear. I don`t believe you: you had the whole damn thing all wrong - He`s not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays. |
