Beware of Virtue (20K Version)

Paroles
And what seems a good thing today Turns out tomorrow to have been a disaster What seemed in the moral spiritual sphere too, like great virtues in times past Are easily seen today as hideous evils Let's take, for example, the Inquisition In its own day, among Catholics, the Holy Inquisition was regarded as we today regard the practice of psychiatry You, you see, you feel that in curing the person of cancer, almost anything is justified The most complex operation, the most weird surgery, people suspended for days and days on end on the еnd of tubes with x-ray penetration Burning, pеople undergoing shock treatment, people locked in the colorless, monotonous corridors of mental institutions In all good faith, they knew that witchcraft and heresy were terrible things Awful plagues imperiling people's souls forever and ever So any means were justified to cure people of heresy We don’t change We don't change We're doing the same thing today But under different names We don't change (Nah, nah, nah, nah) We're doing the same thing today But under different names We can look back at those people and see how evil that was But we can't see it in ourselves So therefore, beware of virtue
