Esperanza Spalding - Dancing The Animal (Mind) lyrics
[Esperanza Spalding - Dancing The Animal Mind lyrics]
I'm at the house of worship
Rife with pride, rife with doctrine
Rife with sin, now my laptop or device
Is where I shop for wisdom
At my very fingertips
So much more than some holy man
Could ever hope to comprehend
So maybe now the holy spirit is
Simply a mighty network
Anchored in accumulated knowledge
Now encompassing the globe
Zeros and ones no one can touch
You must behold
So, have you prayed to your phone today?
Atoning for all ignorance we bow
Our busy heads to
Seek immortal wisdom from the clouds
Rollin' down the social mountain to
The tablet in each hand
Eight billion new commandments
At my command, and some I post too
Google humanity, but while you do
Guard the animal in you
God's the animal in you (In you)
No pride, no greed, no sin (In you)
Guard the animal in you, in you, in
Guard the animal, God's the animal in you
But when you ask the web anything
It's always there for you
Though the answers may not be true
Searching an engine for the ghost of truth
While the animal in you
Guards the tangible in you (In you)
Your heart, your guts, your skin (In you)
Guards the tangible in you, in you, in
Guard the animal guard the tangible
Amazing grace, I miss you badly
I had to search the meaning (Of the word)
So little of it sadly
With all this forward leaning (Grace)
If it's in me
What good is all this reading? (Of the word)
Open attachments eating
Into my time for living (Grace)
If there is a God out there (Of the word)
Once you've ended famine and warfare (Grace)
If you would just make
These endless emails disappear (Of the word)
Oh, and show us how to fix
The climate while you're here
Your search for help did
Not match any documents
Suggestions, make sure all words
Are spelled correctly
Try different keywords
Try more general keywords
Try fewer keywords
Maybe try using real words
Try using your words, ask another humanoid
Try asking the one you are trying to avoid
Yourself
Accumulated knowledge now encompassing
The globe zeroes and ones no one can touch
You must behold
To understand (The burden of evolving man)
But, may you not become a stranger to
Guard the animal in you
Guard the tangible in you (In you)
No service, page, or PIN (In you)
The program you came in with
Guard the animal guard the tangible
God's the animal god's the tangible
In you, in you, in you
Rife with pride, rife with doctrine
Rife with sin, now my laptop or device
Is where I shop for wisdom
At my very fingertips
So much more than some holy man
Could ever hope to comprehend
So maybe now the holy spirit is
Simply a mighty network
Anchored in accumulated knowledge
Now encompassing the globe
Zeros and ones no one can touch
