Your Holy Grail will never seem too high
Your Holy Grail will never seem too high -
Whatever you can't conquer, you just buy.
No more naive, but easy to enslave,
So it's too much to say that you are knave.
If artless wisdom was of no avail,
Today you're stupid on a larger scale:
To mock the phantasms of a little child
Is not a murder, is a suicide.
A range of vision that of butterfly
Who drinks its life away without "why".
You see the flower and take it there and then,
Both cause and purpose are beyond your ken.
Whatever you can't conquer, you just buy.
No more naive, but easy to enslave,
So it's too much to say that you are knave.
If artless wisdom was of no avail,
Today you're stupid on a larger scale:
To mock the phantasms of a little child
Is not a murder, is a suicide.
A range of vision that of butterfly
Who drinks its life away without "why".
You see the flower and take it there and then,
Both cause and purpose are beyond your ken.
