Em Dm7
I m not selling molasses I m not pushing tea
Em Dm7
I don t appeal to the masses and they don t appeal to me
Em Dm7
I m not peddling fiction I m not packaging youth
Em Dm7
I ve got a predilection for the truth

BRIDGE #1
Am Dm
I can t stand it any longer I can t suffer any more fools
Am Dm
I m gonna keep on sharpening axes till I ve got the sharpest tools
C Gm
I can t access information comin down the mainframe
C Gm Bm A Bm A
Those puerile incantations in couplets or quatrains

Watch it all run amok now watch those idiots score
Till you can t remember that they re idiots any more
Watch that stain increasing spreading out across the earth
Till you can t remember what anything is worth

BRIDGE #2
I can t stand it any longer I can t listen to any more words
I m gonna keep on sharpening axes till they cut right through this dirt
I can t access information comin down the satellite beam
All I hear is psycho babble and I don t know what it means
