Whoever we are
Wherever we're from
We shoulda noticed by now
Our behavior is dumb
And if our chances
Expect to improve
It's gonna take a lot more
Than tryin' to remove
The other race
Or the other whatever
From the face of the planet altogether
They call it the earth
Which is a dumb kinda name
But they named it right
'Cause we behave the same
We are dumb all over
Dumb all over, yes we are
Dumb all over, near 'n far
Dumb all over, black 'n white
People, we is not wrapped tight
Nurds on the left, nurds on the right
Religious fanatics
On the air every night sayin' the bible
Tells the story makes the details
Sound real gory 'bout what to do
If the geeks over there
Don't believe in the book you got over here
You can't run a race without no feet
'N pretty soon
There won't be no street
For dummies to jog on or doggies to dog on
Religious fanatics can make it be all gone
It won't blow up 'n disappear
It'll just look ugly for a thousand years
You can't run a country by a book of religion
Not by a heap or a lump or a smidgeon
Of foolish rules of ancient date
Designed to make you all feel great
While you fold, spindle and mutilate
Those unbelievers from a neighboring state
To arms! to arms!
Hooray! that's great
Two legs ain't bad unless there's a crate
They ship the parts to mama in
For souvenirs: two ears (get down!)
Not his, not hers, (but what the hey?)
The good book says: "It's gotta be that way!"
But their book says: "Revenge the crusades
With whips 'n chains 'n hand grenades"
Two arms? two arms?
Have another and another
Our God says: "There ain't no other!"
Our God says "It's all okay!"
Our God says "This is the way!"
It says in the book: "Burn 'n destroy
Repent, 'n redeem
And revenge, 'n deploy 'n rumble thee forth
To the land of the unbelieving scum on the other side
'Cause they don't go for what's in the book
And that makes 'em bad
So verily we must choppeth them up
And stompeth them down
Or rent a nice French bomb
To poof them out of existence
While leaving their real estate just where we need it
To use again for temples in which to praise our god
"'Cause he can really go higher and!"
And when his humble TV servant
With a brown suit, glasses
Maybe a blonde wife who takes phone calls
Tells us it's okay to do this stuff
Then we gotta do it
'Cause if we don't do it, we ain't gwine up to hebbin!
Ain't that right?
It's right
I mean seriously
This television evangelist is a dangerous business
Don't let them get you
Anyway, listen
We can't really be dumb if we're just following god's orders
After all
He wrote this book here
An' in the book it says: "He made us all to be just like him"
So if we're dumb
Then god is dumb
An' maybe even a little ugly on the side
C'mon move on
I may be ugly on the side
C'mon move on
I may be ugly on the side
Wherever we're from
We shoulda noticed by now
Our behavior is dumb
And if our chances
Expect to improve
It's gonna take a lot more
