SUBMENSA SONG

Well, you know I never saw a war,
Nor a casualty,
And yet I know what rubble is
And what a corpse must be . . .

I read it in a paper somewhere . . .

Now, isn't that stupid? It's just so stupid.
I ask God, are we stupid?
We're submensas, we're just submensas

Twisting spasms in orgies go,
Round and round the dance floor so
I don't know up, I don't know down
I just crease my mouth and frown -

I hope it doesn't freeze that way . . .

Now, isn't that stupid? It's just so stupid.
I ask God, are we stupid?
We're submensas, we're only submensas

You know, I wanna run away with you,
Want to put the world together with glue-
I want to do it, but I can't see
Why I can't believe in me-

And that's the way it feels,
Sometimes, in the rain
in the dark
Or when you're all alone-

Now, isn't that stupid? It's just so stupid.
I ask God, are we stupid?
We're submensas, we're only submensas-

Under the Lord
Under the law
Under the table -
We're trapped - there's just one word:

Inferior.
