Bad Religion - The Profane Rights of Man lyrics
[Bad Religion - The Profane Rights of Man lyrics]
Hostility to every living creature
Like gifted intellectual commands
"Inalienable" is not some moving feature
Its foundation, a bedrock of the land
So, it's criminal, antithetical
Inimical to enlightened plan
If you seek to make divisible the principle
Of the profane rights of man
And so it turns, the bourgeoisie
The bastard child of democracy
Morphs into aristocracy
Demands advantage it must not receive
But, if the citizen will not stay it's hand
The myth becomes a menace on the land
And it's criminal, antithetical, inimical
Oh oh
Intelligence and knowledge are an ordinance
A constant check on privilege and wealth
Nurture it, provisioning a furtherance
Of fundamental democratic health
So, it's criminal, antithetical
Inimical to an enlightened plan
If you seek to make divisible the principle
Of the profane rights of man
Oh oh oh oh oh
Like gifted intellectual commands
"Inalienable" is not some moving feature
Its foundation, a bedrock of the land
So, it's criminal, antithetical
Inimical to enlightened plan
If you seek to make divisible the principle
Of the profane rights of man
And so it turns, the bourgeoisie
The bastard child of democracy
Morphs into aristocracy
Demands advantage it must not receive
But, if the citizen will not stay it's hand
The myth becomes a menace on the land
And it's criminal, antithetical, inimical
Oh oh
Intelligence and knowledge are an ordinance
A constant check on privilege and wealth
Nurture it, provisioning a furtherance
Of fundamental democratic health
So, it's criminal, antithetical
Inimical to an enlightened plan
If you seek to make divisible the principle
Of the profane rights of man
Oh oh oh oh oh
