Petty Thoughts lyrics

Man's extent of intelligence is often based

On what he ate, people disliked, pain faced

Tis strange how much thought will never be

Blinded minds that can never see

Somehow instead of deep thought is trash

Behavior too then is often too rash

Shall most men never know themselves

There are few giants, and many elves

Each healthy one has the same brain

But like an empty sink with a plugged drain

Waters of thought would overflow uncontrolled

Restraint must be equally enrolled

Discipline of thought develops the sum

It answers the problem to overcome

Great thoughts come from great men

They are just like us all in the end
