They look at this world say it needs to evolve But what problem can endless mutations solve? I look at this world I say isn't it neat? It's like the best present you can get in your stockings is feet Wouldn't you think I'm the Apostle The Apostle of common sense? I look at the rhinoceros it looks like it does not exist The hornbill, the cockatoo, even the elephant We've got truth, goodness and beauty a plenty We've got history and scripture galore You want paradoxes? I've got twenty! But who cares? No big deal They want George Moore They think they want eugenics Bureaucrat run nurseries. They want us to see cave men as slightly smarter Chimpanzees Debating socialists, you don't get too far It takes a lot of education to not see what's obvious When you cling to one concept you become (what was that called again? oh yeah...) a monomaniac Here where they walk, Here where they run Here where they wear tweed jackets in the sun Wanderin' free, wish they could see What’s right with the world... What would they do if they weren't riding fads like teerer totters? What would they say if only they read everlasting man? But they don't understand, their only plan is not to label babies sons or daughters tilitarianism... soon just nazism ready to spread... If only they knew what common people know If they went to the pub they might get some answers What is a truth and how does it remain (what’s the word?) eternal? I think for sure, it would help more To get shipwrecked on your own country's shore Out of the sea with new eyes might see What’s right with the world...
