Rational Behaviour

Oh this is crap, I’ve heard it all before
That’s what you said as you clearly through my records on the floor
And all I could think of to say
Was don’t judge a book my its cover or some other dull cliché

I showed you paintings by Escher
You laughed and said you could do better

I’m so glad your my rational friend
I’ll bow down to your wisdom from this day till the end
I don’t care what you say, I’m not listening anyway
And it’ll take much more than a nuclear war to blow you away

This guy’s a schmuck
You said he’s unwell
Pointing at the book by H.G.Wells
I said that he’s worse than unwell – cos he’s dead
Don’t you read inside your padded little cell ?

I played you songs by Ray Davies
You said the Kinks have been doing stuff like that for ages

I’m so glad your my rational friend
I’ll bow down to your wisdom from this day till the end
I don’t care what you say, I’m not listening anyway
And it’ll take much more than a nuclear war to blow you away

So here we are with nothing to see
Cos nothing gets past your credibility
One day when they empty your mind
They’ll be surprised at the junk they find

And when this song gets a slating
You’ll say I should have always listened to your ratings

I’m so glad your my rational friend
I’ll bow down to your wisdom from this day till the end
I don’t care what you say, I’m not listening anyway
And it’ll take much more than a nuclear war to blow you away
