Absent Minded

Holier times

Once upon a time
they nailed men to crosses
everyone had a witchcraft alter
slaves and were racist beyond anything you could imagine
not to mention sexist
and in these holy times which we praise
and receive our philosophies
we place upon pedestals
what's under rug swept?
the truth of women historically bathing in blood?
the kings cutting off heads of men and women?
the wars of our fathers that span centuries we are all detectives of
as we flip through history class of lies
and go to church of the holy whatever
and think maybe its satanism?

we no longer kill animals needlessly
or sacrifice men for that matter
few of us bathe in blood
or search for immortality through black magic
but in this period of mankind there are psychics and dogmas and psychology
medicine and health care
where before it was survival of the fittest
noble men saw a pretty lady
and was granted permission to rape farmers daughters
should we return there?
should we drain the blood of saints and drink
the tears of innocents
to become immortal

oh those those were the holy times we all worship
so go ahead point your finger at me
call me the Antichrist
tell me how i have everything wrong
put me in the middle as i go out and look out on the Internet
to stalk out sickos hunting children for sexual pleasure
tell me I'm the evil of the world
as i protest drugs and guns and bombs and war
go ahead
sway in your aisles of satanism and strike up
another brigade your not going to win
because those were the holy times inspired by the mania
and confusions of rapists
hostility confusion and the illogical of pure hatred and dictatorship

what do we have today?
junkies singing music
wars of our fathers
politicians abusing power that belong in mental institutes
philosophy and poetry
learned life lessons no one bothered to write down
70 years of psychology to sell low self esteem to a population
to get them to go to wars through propaganda lies
and liars
and historical lies
and sex trades and at least now there are a few more saints
at least now we are actually living in holier times
before all they could do was run away

no one would ever come save them
and if they tried it was just a reason to go to war
we live in holier times my friends
its true
this is not the generation of Satan
this is not any apocalypse
we might be fighting wars with bombs now and guns
but that's been going on for hundreds of years
its really nothing new
so let me poop the party and tell you
we live in much holier times
much much much holier times

few serial killers
some Americas most wanted
the truth you really can't trust anybody
and the fact that perhaps
there are no queens bathing in blood
nailing people to crosses
knights burning down peasants houses
and raping beautiful daughters
turning whoever they wanted to into a slave
but oh those were the holy days
the day Jesus was alive and said
lets all run away

he never wrote the bible
the bible was a piece of propaganda written from the past
to keep peasants and everyone in line
if Jesus had written the bible
it wouldn't read like it did
and it would mention the fact that even in the midst of our turmoil
the future we live in
the present here today
we live in holier days

so what should we do
start philosophizing rocks to throw into the future
to defeat the evil that is left
realize psychology can be used for good
and not just to sell shoes beer and cigarettes?
manipulation and control
if that's what's in their hearts
send them to a mental institute and let the truly enlightened lead
we are all like dominoes
with a fate of the direction we fall
and the way we role played our heroes as children
is a game we never stopped playing as adults
but what child ever Said OK Lets pretend I'm Jesus
and you're the people and you're all following me
it's above their heads

so we grow into that one
and eventually we see who fits that shoe the best
but unfortunately out of prayer confusion and hope
we pray then pay someone blind as a bat
with a team of jerks and megalomaniacs
who fiends after control and manipulation and power
to write speeches send us to war and fix the world......

does anyone notice the guy brainwashed with the solution
whose been role playing martyr with the perfect life for 17 years?
or are we still stuck in our ways of this is the apocalypse even though
its an act of terrorism
and someone enlightened out there who knows how
miracle play works
and how all the pieces fit
might start with the underground
and one day lead you through political mental institutes
to the fact that these are holier times
and lets find out who understands what

should we listen to the evil bib;le that says the truth of
we don't need to see the future
because that was based on a story of a paranoid king
who caused war after war cause he thought he could
and now that role is being repeated....
when will we learn to demote a bunch of morons
place an enlightened underground in a position of authority
and bring the world to its place
and be where we're supposed to be

and then write chapters and time capsules
and safety nets for the next generation of how to keep it there
as we make them think
and teach them strategically
that they don't really live in a perfect world....
politicians are taught how to lead
but everyone thinks a true leader is born
can we find that one mind
and put him in power after we test his heart for purity
and then encourage him
instead of just voting in some junkie alcoholic
with a bunch of money who wanted a dream cause he sold his soul?

doesn't matter to me
we live in much holier times
