Lyrics
So you're a self proclaimed messiah
Challenging someone who claims to be a savior or messiah
Or maybe a blasphemes liar
Suggesting the possibility of being a dishonest blasphemer
A clever hypnotic hoax
Describing the person as a clever deceiver using hypnotic tactics
A hallowed heretic coax
Referring to the person as a revered heretic who persuades others
Who tells these stories so old
Talking about the repetition of ancient stories
No, never the same twice told
Emphasizing the lack of originality in the stories
Speaking in distorted truths
Speaking in a way that distorts the truth
I see that Thomas wants some proof
Noting skepticism and the desire for evidence, possibly referencing Doubting Thomas from the Bible
Did you come to heal the sick
Raising the question of whether the person came to genuinely help the sick
With one more magician's trick
Implies skepticism about miraculous healing as just another trick
Ye generation seeks a sign
Commenting on the demand for signs or miracles by the current generation
While blind keeps leading the blind
Highlighting the irony of blind individuals leading others
So you say there is no god
Explicitly stating the belief that there is no god
Just a clever man's charade
Characterizing the concept of god as a cleverly devised charade
A once upon a fairy tales fraud
Comparing the idea of god to a fraudulent fairy tale
Has god made man or man made god
Pondering the origin of god, questioning if man created god or vice versa
There is no god
Reiterating the assertion that there is no god
Confused thy talk in parables
Describing confusion in communicating through parables
Accused thou walk in parallels
Accusing the person of walking along similar lines but not the right path
A simple game of Simon says
Comparing belief to a simple game of following instructions
This month's flavor sciences
Referencing the transient nature of popular beliefs in science
Today's fact, tomorrow's fiction
Highlighting the fluidity of facts, turning into fiction over time
Leave the rest to superstition
Encouraging reliance on superstition when facts are unknown
If knowledge comes from learning books
Comparing knowledge gained from books to wisdom obtained from perceptive observation
Wisdom comes from discerning looks
Asserting that a fool denies the existence of god
A fool that says there is no god
Expressing a lack of sympathy for someone who denies god
Don't feel for that sorry sod
Suggesting that seeking proof is unnecessary for belief
Who needs proof then he'll believe
Questioning if a person who requires proof has been deceived
I wonder if he's been deceived
Expressing doubt about the sincerity of belief in the absence of proof
There is no god
Reiterating the bold statement that there is no god
