Well, let me tell you all a story
Let me tell you all a story that I learned at a very young age
A story that doesn’t have an end
Yet we can’t quite start from the very beginning
In the beginning there was nothing, go figure
They wrote a book about everything we ever did
You’re asking the wrong questions
I never said you had to think there was a reason why
Yet it was widely considered
To be one of the staple events of early naught thousands
And nobody believed it
The boy was big on animation
But I’m getting too far ahead of myself
Step back a couple more million seconds
I second that; said nobody in the room
But it isn’t a room, it’s a garden
Not far then, are we
From our great great great great great grandparents
And guess what? Shame on them
They invented the concept of original artwork
It’s quite an art to lie
And they’ve mastered it with time
And now here we are, trying not to choke
On our unwarranted childhood instruction
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
Fair warning, here comes the universe
Better get working on some plot holes
Good morning let me say hey
To what I can assume is my lady counterpart
Turns out I never had free will
Nobody told me but I guess I should of known better
Perhaps it’s cheap, like a dollar per choice
And a couple hundred shillings for a life’s supply
He said I messed up, lemme do it again
Turns out, you can’t erase what you wrote in pen
Little man, you better not screw this up
This is gonna be quite the recurring theme
As later he made some silly demands
That we all shrugged off and celebrated
But don’t let that distract you
From the entertainment of a religious experiment
And lo and behold, he is born
The man, the myth, the mighty-morphin' schizophrenic
Bow down to your infallible king
Who would never ask you to bow down to him
My my, how did he do what he did
I thought I knew, but I was just a kid
And just like that, he made water wine
How didn’t I see it? I must be blind
You’ve got a pair of eyes in the pack
Finding your ideals like a needle in a haystack
I wouldn’t say you’re so sure, though
Everything you say today will disappear tomorrow
What made it magical was just that
A medium to cover up your apathy
What made it believable was in fact
The fact that we never had free will
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
Well, it’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
Well, it’s a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
Now here we finally are
At the universal symbol of hypocrisy
His head hung low, and his friends took control
Of the monumental task of making it sound real
When a weekend later
He shattered records with his unbelievable feat
His feet should’ve been on top of each other
Our heads should be able to debunk this
Well, nonetheless we learned a valuable lesson
Or did we? I didn’t check
I checked that, checked that, that too, but
Something doesn’t seem right, lemme write it down
In a universe that no one knows the origins of
How can you be certain that yours is the right dude
In a fantasy biographed after the fact
How can you be certain that you made the right move
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
Well, it’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
It’s a, a round trip from dust and back
A round trip from dust and back
You think they’ll cut you some slack
On your round trip from dust and back
