Speed Racer

Have I learned anything from all of these lectures?

I think it's my attention span clipped by TV at an early age

Well who heard the radio when you are five years old?

I used to watch Speed Racer with that hyper attitude

That carried me here to this flourescent enlightenment

I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim

Oh, I...I...I...I am intelligent, I am intelligent

I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim

Oh, I...I...I...I am an atheist, I am an atheist

The idea of divine order is essentially crazy

The laws of action and reaction

Are the closest thing to truth in the universe

So don't try to spray me with your archaic rites of soul

Your vision is a biological one

I can dodge the thunderbolts

And scratch out an existence on this glorious but simple plane

I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim

Oh, I...I...I...I am intelligent, I am intelligent

I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim

Oh, I...I...I...I am an atheist, I am an atheist
