"alrighty" by ani Difranco

alrighty
let's not be dumb.
the sun is almighty as they come.
yes, light is the god that you meant to see
pouring into your stained glass 
saying worship me

alrighty
for what it's worth
next time i watch a man give birth
i'll try to picture the creator as a dude with a beard
cuz right now i gotta say
it seems kinda weird

alrighty
shit gets absurd
you invent angels, then you make no birds
you forget to actually listen to the messengers
While you're writing and reciting your own goddamned words

alrighty
i'll try to chill
though i'm acutely aware that only ill
can come of being cut off from all of consciousness
save for that expressed by humans and their big hot mess

alrighty
alrighty

alrighty
let's not be dumb
the sun is almighty as they come
yeah light is the god that you meant to see 
pouring into your stained glass saying worship me.

(thanks Ritchie!)
