The Street Porter & the Philosopher
Well at six years old we seem to be
In ability nearly the same soon changed by modernity
And our innate desire to truck barter or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
Whether you're paid to think or move on the street
Your disposition and genius were made in equity
In isolation they'd appear the same
Still that philosopher remains so vain
But the fellow dogs separately
Can't utilize their different skills, strength, swiftness or docility
From no innate desire to truck barter or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
Whether you're paid to think or move on the street
Your disposition and genius were made in equity
So Aristotle was wrong about the slaves
Still that philosopher remains so vain
It's our innate desire to truck, barter, or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
In ability nearly the same soon changed by modernity
And our innate desire to truck barter or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
Whether you're paid to think or move on the street
Your disposition and genius were made in equity
In isolation they'd appear the same
Still that philosopher remains so vain
But the fellow dogs separately
Can't utilize their different skills, strength, swiftness or docility
From no innate desire to truck barter or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
Whether you're paid to think or move on the street
Your disposition and genius were made in equity
So Aristotle was wrong about the slaves
Still that philosopher remains so vain
It's our innate desire to truck, barter, or exchange
And you're not any higher in worth or dignity
