[Intro] [Verse] Perish the thought - a god in me Among the billion starlit sights That bathe the brain in destiny Calling daily on mindful rights [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Verse] Let science go about its work And reason why when loved ones part Thought of heaven before the fork To turn - to jab - to wake - to start [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Verse] So many weaknesses to slay Surprised by tears when tunes invade A heart or mind as soulful prey Or worse the prophets of the sword [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Break] [Verse] And what of truth this tiresome meme That all adopt as rightful tool Each cap or codpiece coloured theme Battery hen or capon of cool [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Verse] Motion shared by spirited man Flights of fancy each worldview drawn In evolution’s certain span Lost in thought each cross-haired fawn [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Break] [Verse] We will not let the devils ride Who wish for b***d and sinew more Than they reveal and barely hide An image - a future - a door [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Chorus] Give me words of worldly and wise Flush the dangerous detours away The god delusions and their spies Who conjure calm from pots of clay [Outro]
