Love of the son

Came back again to make it clear that
He never said it would meet demand
Shame on a martyr, claiming friends from
Either perspective of 'and'

Weak and strong
And wet and dry
And right and wrong
And live and die
And sane and gone
And love and not
And all the and's that we forgot

So sing while you hear it and don't deny it
Leave if you can't stand the thought of it
Come back again to make things stand
With no disrespect to the 'and'

High and low
And new and old
And stop and go
And hot and cold
And John and Yoko
Dark and light
It's almost time to say goodnight to it

They took a lesson from their fathers
Told them that they were the same command
Wait for the minds to make complete
Their lies stuck beside every 'and'

Words and numbers
Sound and silence
Stop the peace
And keep the violence
No and yes
And we digress
It lives with sad and happiness
Oh, God!!

Big bad Betty of the 'pocalypse
She opens her lips and it goes like this
When the golden rule and the jungle meet
There'll be nothing to love and there'll be no one to beat

Oh, the things we know, the things we don't
Oh, the things we think, we can't, will and won't
We're loathed together and nothing's left
We're all together and they're all bereft

Capitalist, communist
You did the hokey-pokey and it went like this
You hate each other and you love yourselves
It might be heaven and it might be hell

Oh, the things we do, the things we say
Oh, the things we wish we could wash away
