Well I'm reading this poem and it's so profound
And I like it's rhythm and I like it's sound
It's by a very famous poet no critic can criticise
And then I pause a moment and I start to realize
He's tellin lies lies lies
On the motel T.V. I dig the evangelist
He'll tell you all about that
And then he tell you all about this
He's preachin' up a storm by the sea of Galilee
He's mixin' up the truth with something funny
I start to see
I never had this problem with nobody in the government
I guess I always figured they never mean what they meant
And GOD help us all not to be so stone surprised
When we wake up in the stars with the skies
In our eyes if we keep tellin'
