Bob And Socrates

I am an ancient citizen of your brain I'm replacing the gods with a reason and
I don't wear shoes I measure shadows I am changing my mind like the seasons
And before I was Socrates I was a guy named Bob I worked all day at the sunset lounge
And I thought I knew wrong from right thought I knew right from wrong
But when Pericles died I was weeping, because some things are just beyond my control
And when babies are born and the world spins around I can tell there's too much I don't know

I am Socrates know thyself before you're someone else

I am a city on the edge of defeat now yes I am a ship off to conquer the night
And I thought I knew right from wrong thought I knew wrong from right
So I'll be brave when I am drinking the hemlock because I think that I have played a good card
I'll put out to the world this question just what is the greatest reward
