Dancing The Animal

I’m out, the house of worship\nRife with pride, rife with doctrine\nRife with sin, now my laptop or device\nIs where I shop for wisdom\nAt my very fingertips so much more than some holy man\nCould ever hope to comprehend\nSo maybe now the holy spirit is\nSimply a mighty network\nAnchored in accumulated knowledge\nNow encompassing the globe\nZeros and ones no-one can touch\nYou must behold\nSo have you prayed to your phone today?\nAtoning for all ignorance we bow our busy heads to\nSeek immortal wisdom from the clouds\nRollin' down the social mountain to the tablet in each hand\n8 billion new commandments\nAt my command and some I post too\nGoogle humanity but while you do\nGuard the animal in you\nGod’s the animal in you (In you)\nNo pride no greed no sin (You)\nGuard the animal in you (In you)\n(In you)\nGuard the animal\nGod’s the animal in you\nBut when you ask the web anything\nIt’s always there for you\nThough the answers may not be true\nSearching an engine for the ghost of truth\nWhile the animal in you\nGuards the tangible in you (In you)\nYour heart, your guts, your skin (In you)\nGuard the tangible in you (In you)\nGuard the animal\nGuard the tangible\nAmazing grace I miss you badly\nI had the search the meaning (of the word)\nSo little of it sadly\nWith all this forward leaning (Grace)\nIf it’s in me\nWhat good is all this reading (of the word)\nOpen attachments eating\nInto my time for living (grace)\nIf there is a god out there (of the word)\nOnce you’ve ended famine and warfare (grace)\nIf you would just make these endless emails disappear (of the word)\nOh, and show us how to fix the climate while you’re here\nYour search for help did not match any documents\nSuggestions make sure all words are spelled correctly\nTry different keywords try more general keywords\nTry fewer keywords, maybe try using real words\nTry using your words ask another humanoid\nTry asking the one you are trying to avoid\nYourself\nAccumulated knowledge now encompassing the globe\nZeroes and ones no-one can touch\nYou must behold to understand\nThe burden of evolving man\nBut, may you not become a stranger to\nGod the tangible in you\nGod the animal in you (In you)\nNo service, page, or pin (In you)\nThe program you came in with (In you)\nGuard the animal\nGuard the tangible\nGod’s the animal\nGod’s the tangible\nIn you\nIn you\nIn you
