If there is beauty, there must be ugliness;
If there is right, there must be wrong
Wisdom and ignorance are complementary,
And illusion and enlightenment cannot be separated.
This is an old truth,
Don't think it was discovered recently,
"I want this, I want that"
Is nothing but foolishness.
I'll tell you a secret,
"All things are impermanent!"

A cheap date that can't be sold
Won't send you to an early grave
But jesus looked down and said "son,
I know a doubter when i see one,
Ambition stands out like a sore thumb"
You just laughed and said
No one here forgets your past
The meek had a meeting of minds
Consistent hypocrisy..hey! that's alright
Let's overthrow this old guard
So hands off the virgin prom queen
You can't fool old friends with limousines
But it won't send you to an early grave
