Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last years of my life
And thank you thank you thank you
For my fourth and final wife
Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last swims in the sea
And thank you thank you thank you
For perpetual my spree
Oh thank you thank you thank you
For these last glad golden times
And thank you thank you thank you
For the tenure of my rhymes
An alpha male shat 'pon my sonnet!
He called it trash and then squatted
Calling for Buddha I became quieter
fearful because he's a huge hothead
The top dog then wiped his asshole,
using the medicated poem as paper
Focusing o'er grateful and thankful,
I remember never trigger for haters
We have come a long way
Many years in the field
We have lost our fair share
But at least we have healed
We have come a long way
Many years on the road
We have traveled this far
Time to lighten the load
We have come a long way
Many years on the run
We have won here and there
But blazed under the gun
We have come a long way
Many years in the mix
We have made it this far
Time to get our last kicks
We saw the moon eclipse the sun, cowering in fear
we said that must be 'God', which offered us some cheer
We saw the shooting stars, falling down to Earth
scared we stared and asked, is the 'God' giving birth?
We saw the lightening strikes, frightened to our cores
we said this must be 'God' again, just like the times before
we saw the mighty mountain, spitting smoke and fire
we ran to hide but said looking back, 'God's' easy to admire!
We saw the Earth at center, because 'God' told us so
we said we can't explain it, it's just something that we know
We saw 'God' in our image, as we admired the mirrors and said
'God' is real and you must accept, or else 'He'll' make you dead
I need to write one more, before my bones are dust
I don't want to pen another, 'tis closer now to must
Shakespeare's singing, new science play's a thing!
I need to say some truth, while I'm a human being
I need to own this ode, focus well 'pon what's said
I hope religion's banished not long after I am dead
Why isn't it and when will science become humanity's new religion?
Astronomy, Math, Biology, Physics, Psychology the new scriptures!
Go to 'church' on Sunday and listen to an Astronomer tell us what
we can and cannot see with our naked eyes at night in a starry sky
so we can truly begin to know how small and insignificant we are
which will help us understand why war, hate, cruelty and greed are
such a stupid, sad, pathetic waste of a human beings precious life
You say there's a God but you show no proof
you say your faith's enough yet faith alone is factless
you say I lack faith but I have faith in science
you say your God speaks to you yet I hear only silence
you say there's a heaven but I see only space
you say there's a hell yet I comprehend only magma
you say I'm a heathen but I understand we're both human
you say I'm a wicked sinner as I watch your hypocrisies
you say your Jesus is caring as I witness your selfish greed
you say your God is love as I feel your contemptuous hate
you say all this with a smile but underneath I sense a sneer
I have faith in science
my faith in science is absolute
my faith in science is my truth
I shall never waiver from this faith
I have science facts to back up my truth
Geology: The Earth is billions of years old
Physics: A human being cannot walk on water
Biology: A human being cannot rise from the dead
Astronomy: The Earth is round and revolves around the Sun
Chemistry: A human being cannot be born without both egg and sperm
I have no faith
I am faithless
No true allegiance
Untrustworthy as a
sneaky thief
I have no faith
I am faithless
No promises kept
Infidelity the keeper
of my grief
I have no faith
I am faithless
No real beliefs
Distrustful of all
human schemes
I have no faith
I am faithless
No convictions
Faithful only to
broken dreams
My faith is strong
I believe in my faith, I trust my faith
my faith is real, my faith is the truth
I do not waiver in my faith
my faith is my rock, my faith is my life
I put everything into my faith
My faith will get me through
I will never abandon my faith
nothing can alter my faith, or destroy my faith
I will never deny my faith
I will never accept another faith
my faith is my salvation
My faith is my God
my faith lies in the heavens
my faith's the moon's made of delicious cheese
We are true science men
Who revere intellect
We invite inquiry
Not piety unchecked
We are true science men
Who loathe skulldugery
We revere evidence
Not lame humbugery
We are true science men
Who detest delusions
We applaud verity
Not stone age illusions
