About the Universe

for Ken Ham

Facts are flowing out like endless rain 'cause I just make them up I blither wildly as I make my claims about the universe Tiny shards of broken logic fall to pieces all around me -- Frightening, not enlightening me... Like a caaa-arr sales...man... omm... Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind My thoughts are tangled like a hopeless mess, I don't know what I mean And so I say whatever comes to mind about the universe Fools will follow anyone who tells them they're superior And so I so I tell them what they want to hear about the universe Like a caaa-arr sales...man... omm... Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind

Never mind that bronze-age herdsmen didn't know a thing beyond the patch of land on which they lived much less about the universe Never mind that how the Bible says we should behave is quite obsessively, aggressively... Never mind your scientists who look at evidence - my answers are in Genesis and what it says about the universe Like a caaa-arr sales...man... omm... Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind Nothing's gonna change my mind

Never mind that what the Bible says we should believe
is mostly either horrible or simply wrong about the universe
