None Of What We See
A good rule of thumb,
here in the mechanics
of the mind, some just aren't
mechanically inclined.
A line of people
waiting in a queue,
more and more gathered
until there was quite a few.
Some were crippled
and others were blind,
some were deaf and they did sign.
Here in the mechanics of the mind
some just aren't mechanically inclined.
A good rule of thumb,
none of what you see
only half of what you hear.
They 'll play on your ignorance
they will cater to your fear.
More and more came to
where they gathered on that day.
They brought with them paper,
and shoddy goods they did take away.
Here in the mechanics of the mind,
some just aren't mechanically inclined.
And a good rule of thumb is a good rule of thumb.
