I Built a Temple and Put a Mountain on Top
There was a man in a cave
He wondered if he could make something
That would make everyone
Go crazy
He said "Hey we need a system,
We got monkeys out here banging stones and rocks."
And he said and he said...
He said "If I was only right then I'd be Jesus Christ.
There's a man in the sky, he's watching me at night.
I need somebody up there with a righteous glare.
He tells me what to do and I don't care."
So, I started reading
Whatever that means
I read all these books and I didn't understand
A goddamn thing
So, I went out to the library and I lit a match
I said "If I don't understand this intellectual nightmare
Then none of you ever will."
I burned Descartes, Kant, Freud, Nietczhe, Plato, and Johnny Locke
I said "Fuck you fuck you fuck you
Back in my day I fed lions to Christians
Soloman Soloman Soloman I've outdone you."
I said "Soloman Soloman Soloman I've outdone you"
I understand solipsism
I understand stoicism
I understand Epicureanism
I understand hedonism
I understand epistemology
I understand molecular biology
I understand advanced trigonometry
I understand physiology
I understand politics
I understand that you are an asshole
I understand capitalism
I understand socialism
I understand what I cannot understand
I understand what I do not have the capacity to understand
I understand understanding
I understand that I will never understand understanding
I understand understanding
I understand that I will never understand this understanding
I understand, that I understand, that I do not understand
Solomon Solomon, Solomon I've outdone you
I said "Solomon, I built a temple and put a mountain on top."
He wondered if he could make something
That would make everyone
Go crazy
He said "Hey we need a system,
We got monkeys out here banging stones and rocks."
And he said and he said...
