Something's Wrong


Soon and Libet,
     they both agree;
And if they aren't enough,
     take a look at hissssstory;
And if you're still not convinced,
     go ahead, put your hand on that burner again,
Eventually I think you'll see;
I think you'll see...
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

We have man killing man,
     till what we've got is a blood red sea;
A lust-greed social mindset,
     that chains us all to I, my and me;
There's always a lesson
     comes with pain and misery;
This ain't the way it's supposed to be;
Don't you see?
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

Whatever it is,
     it's been with us all along;
While Love and Peace grow weak,
     it just keeps on gettin' strong;
Our sun is setting,
     pretty soon we'll all be gone;
We gotta' learn a new song;
     and we don't have long...
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

It's waiting for us when we wake up;
     it's there when we fall asleep;
It's a part of everything we say, feel and think,
     week after week;
We teach it to our children;
     we give it voice every time we speak;
Whatever it is it's everywhere;
     and it ain't playin' fair?
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

With patronizing intuitive dribble
     it has paralyzed our hearts;
Appealing to our egos,
     it's jellified our thinkin' parts;
Just 'cuz it's always been this way
     is no reason we gotta stay;
We've got to break away from the herd
     and run some other way...
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

When life gets this out of whack
     you gotta' know the cure won't come easy;
The tyrants of personal dysfunction
     won't be toppled with more appeasing;
Whatever it is that we've always been doing
     that's put us in this hell hole where we are,
it hasn't worked and it ain't workin';
     it ain't workin'...
Some.............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!

Back to Soon and Libet,
     and their clinical discoveries;
The functional "I" speaks,
     and the conscious "I" merely agrees...
There it is; a Rock of Truth;
     the cure for our disease...
Don't like it?  Tough!  Better get used to it;
It's reality...
Some..............thing's...............wrong;
Something is wrong!
