So we all bend down to reason pure and simple
And its reasonable to a ache upon the tail
And like soldiers who are driven on to battle
There are those of us who question not at all

So we all bend down to reason pure and simple
And we file in line as battle generals call
And the pragmatists logistical tactician
Leads technocrats to doom without delay

And like astronauts with wings of pure intention
Our rocket ships burn fuel of yesterday
While tomorrow is a distance near stagnation
When material growth will eat the world away
When material growth will eat the world away

So we all bend down to reason pure and simple
And its reasonable to ache upon the tail
And like soldiers who are driven on to battle
There are those of us who question not at all
There are those of you who question not at all
