...with apologies to Homer

lyrics

A stranger talks on the telephone behind a glass partition;
You can't hear him, but you see his incomprehensible show;
You wonder why he's alive.

A stranger wires an explosive device to his body and walks into a restaurant;
You see his image on the television;
You see the tally of casualties;
You wonder why they're dead.

A stranger confronts you in the mirror as you perform your morning rituals;
You recognize the familiar and yet alarming face you encounter in your own photographs;
You wonder why you're alive.

Hypocrite stranger!
My double! My brother!
You are just the same as me
We both know we don't know shit

Stories are easy
But nothing is certain
Your religion's
Not a weapon
Keep your gospel
In your pants

Your opinion my opinion
What's the difference?
We're all wrong.
Your opinion my opinion
What's the difference?
We're all fucked.

Your opinion my opinion
Your religion's
Not a weapon
Keep your gospel
In your pants
