Roll up roll up, sir, there is not a penny to pay
It’s a simple game where anyone can play
But please be aware, there might be a fee
Of your self-respect, and your dignity
Dum du du du du dum, not me, my wrong-jecture is not available
You won’t catch me, with my pants down, every idea I raise is scalable
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
To play the game properly, we need at least two minds
Take it in turns to dig deep, and to read the signs
We both take turns, to make a wise old sound
By stating over-simplified, things profound
Even if it contradicts, what you’ve previously been statin’
Or if your general rule, only applies to a single situation
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
Down inside an atom, there may be a universe!
It could be one that’s parallel, the same, but things are worse
And if you went back in time, and killed your dad at birth
Would you exist to sell the stale ole’ tale. and what would it be worth?
Star Trek joins Scooby Doo – a meeting of the masses
Where the lowest common denominator still passes
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
It’s true we seek out better pay, to get the things we need
And if put in competition, we would justify our greed
But if all the people on the Earth, were just like me
There would be no wars at all, and we would live in harmony
If everyone was like you
There would be no one to screw!
Oh, thank you, 2 3 4
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
Maybe all the nasty things that happen, are measured out and true
So, be careful how you act, or bad things could happen to you
What goes around comes around, so if you’re born a king
You must have been good last time, or done a lovely thing
That’s right, abnormal babies are payin’ for their previous sin
If you take that reasoning to the end, all losers win
Oh no oh no oh oh ah ah aha ha ha ha ha, just joking
Sorry, I’m just playing with you sir…
Loser!
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
Karma doesn’t exist I know, but damn, I wish it did
All the nice stuff I thought of doing, wasn’t worth its bid
All the bad stuff I thought of doing, wasn’t worth a shit
Instant justice doesn’t exist either, but I wish it did, a bit
If the idea of God evolved, as a beneficial trick of the mind
Then lucky be, those who caught early, a bug so nice and kind
Providing them some peace and love, some justice and some meaning
To enjoy the infectious feeling, of their harmless blissful dreaming
Just don’t throw your religious crap at us, or force it in our schools
Long gone are the days, we were led by, a bunch of fools with rules
Both science and religion, AI and man, dig to find the hidden jewels
But philosophy, is but a technology, and as such, is just a bunch of tools
Amateur philosophy – everything isn’t a cycle, and karma’s just a dream
Amateur philosophy – a single clapping hand, and a silent falling tree
