Peter Murphy Lyrics

"Socrates the Python" lyrics


Today, your problems are not of blind belief
That is or means belief
Ain't enough, belief ain't enough
The oracle of your age, points towards the word, 'Psychological'

You may freeze, you may fear
You may wince and not hear
You can sick at the heart when I say, "God is one"
Does God the word make you reel and I mean, real

But it isn't God the Father Son or Holy One
But the key to your age, get it together and listen
With all the books on the shelf, all the wisdom
With all the books on the shelf, all the wisdom

Socrates, Pythagorus, Yin and bloody Yang
Hatha Yoga, Omm, Bennett, Gurdjieff, Jesus
Old Testament and new, libraries full of keys
Libraries full of keys, where's your lock?

Socrates, Pythagorus, Yin and bloody Yang
Hatha Yoga, Omm, Bennett, Gurdjieff, Jesus
Old Testament and new, libraries full of keys
Libraries full of keys

Bennett, Gurdjieff, Jesus
Bennett, Gurdjieff, Jesus
Bennett, Gurdjieff, Jesus
