Father Fallacy
Unveiling Life's Enigma: Father Fallacy by The Flavians
Lyrics
There are a few different species, dependent on your love
Various forms of love lead to different outcomes or perspectives.
As we live by your thesis
We shape our lives based on the principles you provide.
Oh it’s the man above
Referring to a higher power, possibly God or a figure of authority.
Oh it’s the man above
Reiteration of seeking guidance from the higher power.
You ought to give us some guidance, on certain things in life
Request for specific guidance in certain aspects of life.
Instead you left us oblivious
The absence of guidance has left us unaware or uninformed.
Oh, where’s the man above?
Questioning the whereabouts of the higher power.
Oh, where’s the man above?
Reiteration of questioning the absence of the higher power.
I hear the children sing another awful song
Children expressing dissatisfaction with a repetitive or unpleasant song.
So tell your story
An invitation to share a personal narrative or perspective.
Don’t bore me
An urging not to be monotonous or uninteresting in sharing the story.
You can speak your mind if you leave a dime at the door
Freedom to express opinions, possibly requiring a contribution for entry.
A homeless man thinks he’s Jesus, standing in a pond He smells of garbage and feces
Describing a homeless person claiming divinity despite unpleasant conditions.
He says he’s the man above
Reiteration of the homeless person seeing himself as the higher power.
Oh, he’s the man above
Emphasizing the homeless person's belief in being the higher power.
I hear the children sing another awful song
Children expressing dissatisfaction with a repetitive or unpleasant song (repeated).
So tell your story
Repetition of the invitation to share a personal narrative or perspective.
Don’t bore me
Reiteration of the urging not to be monotonous or uninteresting.
You can speak your mind if you leave a dime at the door Tell your story, don’t bore me
Repetition of the freedom to express opinions with a suggested contribution.
You can speak your mind cause I’ve heard it all before
Encouragement to speak freely as the speaker has heard similar expressions before.
