Entertainment Vs Enlightenment Lyrics

Entertainment Vs Enlightenment lyrics





I know you want me to entertain

don't want me to be lame don't wanna hear me say

stuff that might sober you up

and make you give a fuck 

too bad, you're out of luck! 

because I'm not that funny of a guy, and besides

I've got too many questions in my mind 

like why do I so often resent the world I'm living in? 

and am I boring you yet with the same old shit again? 

did you know that change is within reach? 

and it starts with ourselves.

the stuff we learn and the stuff we teach!

the willingness to be honest with ourselves

and everybody else is the first step to cooling this hell

and did you know that music is a very powerful thing?

and lyrics can be more than just mindless singing?

and maybe you can't change the world, but you can change yourself

and the music should be fun, but sometimes there's something else... 

entertainment vs. enlightenment 

you learn the words to every single verse

entertainment vs. enlightenment 

but it still doesn't make a dent 

entertainment vs. enlightenment 

somebody took the time to write these lines

entertainment vs. enlightenment 

so think about what they meant yeah, 

and did you know that music is a very powerful thing? 

and it's a lot more fun than sitting around whacking (I don't know about that)


and maybe you can't change the world, but you can change yourself

and music should be fun, but sometimes there's something else... 

the things you call important are making me see red 

the patches that you wear and the spikes on your head are nothing but a fashion
show 

and you judge everyone on a sliding scale of "punk" like you were the
first one 

you say music with a message is a fucking bore? 

I guess it takes away from the punk points you score 

but you hate it cause it makes you think I think you hate it cause it makes you
think.
