The Whole Thing (An anthem for humanism)

Words and Music © Geoff Mather 2007

(Inspired by seeing a new-born baby)

Everyday is like a new life to you
As you stare open-eyed
So much fascination comin' to you
Look around, what do you see?

chorus:
C’mon, c’mon let the whole thing grab ya
Just stick around let the whole thing smack ya
Take a deep breath here’s your one life comin' at ya

They will tell you that the cards control you
And the stars rule your days.
Crystal gazing does nothin' for you
Kick 'em out, let Reason in

(chorus)

Don’t you listen to their Bronze Age stories
Of their gods and their ghosts
Take reality and live right in it
Now’s the time for you to sing

(chorus)
