Paroles
So, this is a view of the world As a system of mutual exploitation And of maximal selfishness Now it's a very profitable view to explore Everybody should do in their lifetime sometime (sometime) Two things, one is to consider death Consider death To observe the skulls and skeletons Consider death (Consider death) And to wonder what it will be like to go to sleep and never wake up Never That is a very gloomy thing for contemplation But it's like manure, just as manure fertilizes the plants and so on So the contemplation of death and the acceptance of death Is very highly generative with creative life You get wonderful things out of that And the other thing to contemplate is to follow the possibility of the idea that you are totally selfish That you don't have a good thing to be said for you at all You are a complete, utter rascal You are a complete, utter rascal Now, the Christians have avoided this Because although they say, in their Episcopalian form of confession That “We have erred and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep and we have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts” too much, you know? “We have offended against they holy laws. We have left undone those things we ought to have done, and done those things which we ought not to have done, and there is no health in us.” But, it ought to be different And we're gonna do our best to amend with the help of God's grace That is a real con act If you equate health with genuine love and perfect unselfishness Then in that sense there is no health in us when we look at ourselves from this point of view Consider death To observe the skulls and skeletons Consider death (Consider death) And to wonder what it will be like to go to sleep and never wake up Never Consider death To observe the skulls and skeletons Consider death (Consider death) And to wonder what it will be like to go to sleep and never wake up Never
