Food For Thought
Is it really so depraving, I like to eat a lot?
The thought of food I'm craving, just ties me in a knot
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
In time gone by, not in my day, scholars taught the world was flat
For this they earned their scholars pay, and they believed in all of that
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
He thought he sailed the Indian Ocean, but found America by chance
Columbus had not the slightest notion, how great this happenstance
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
There were prayers to many a deity, to fill the peoples needs
They prayed with reverent piety, in hope that Gods would heed
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Do we come from Adam's rib, or as Darwin claims from monkeys?
Can it be he was too glib and perhaps a bit too funky?
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
So many of our fellow man, we've often fought and killed
That started when the world began and too much blood we've spilled
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT
