The Undertoad - Rituals Of Today's Kids lyrics

[Ed Tessier] Peace has it's price on me Peace has it's price on me I can't believe in my father's dreams I can't hear my mother's call If Jesus walks the earth today I haven't seen him at all Peace has it's price on me Peace has it's price on me I can't hold on to you You can hold on to me I can't on to you You can't hold on to me [KAL speech] Today's kid's are chemically dependent religiously But not fallen. Many do not recognize their rituals as spiritual. It's a necessity that drug use be circumscribed and understood as a spiritual manifestation. Perhaps a religious one. A ritual in pursuit of awareness. It's guaranteed by the Humanist Project. It distinguishes a time of abstinence as a fundamental characteristic. Not permissiveness. Rituals are strongest when there is the most strict abstinence. A conception of the spiritual essence of permissiveness is lacking without a conception of abstinence at its crux [Ed Tessier] Oh, pale It paid a price on me Freedom has a price on me Give me a chance I'll tell you my lie Give me five minutes I'll convince you of anything Every belief you held so dear Every thing you wanted I'll let you hear Give five minutes I'll change your mind Your mind, it's coming around Coming around Coming around [KAL] Are we boring you yet? Are you bored yet? Have we bored you enough yet? You're not bored are you? Hate to bore you Just let us know by Throwing your beer bottles at us
