SAINTS AND SINNERS
Tell me of the nature of the human mind.
Is it basically evil or basically kind?
Is it really true that people will always fight.
Or are we all constructed out of towers of light?
Mother Theresa, Ghandi, and MLK,
Hitler and Mao, Bin Laden all had their days.
Do you believe in original sin?
Is there a devil that is hiding within.
Or are we all angels inside?
Moral and pure only corrupted by lies.
Or is there a darkness that hides?
Deep inside us there's room for both of these kinds.
It's all inside us and there's more.
The shadow, the saint, the sinner.
The pure child, safe in mama's arms.
The little devil, the towering pillar of light.
This darkness, buried deep,
Gets darker, down the deeper we go.
Touch the dark side and proceed.
Let the light shine down on you and me.
Let the light shine down on you and me.

Mother don't think I'm stupid, she thinks I act that way.
Mother don't think I'm stupid, she thinks I act that way.
Mother don't think I'm stupid, she thinks I act that way.
She says: "little boy, behave!"
Little friendly consumer packages marching on and on.
Little friendly consumer packages marching on and on.
Little friendly consumer packages marching on and on.
Little friendly consumer packages marching on and on.
Don't doubt the doubt, ask what it's about.
Don't doubt the doubt, ask what it's about.
Don't doubt the doubt, ask what it's about.
Look inside your head!
