lyrics

Why carry sorrow in your heart?
Who is the creature that you see?
Who is the creature that you see?
What disappointment hold they in store for you?

Well disconcerted posture leads to orthopedic issues
Shouldn't we all consult a doctor and wear those
Fashionable brown shoes?
Well I say
We should just stand up straight

Why carry triumph in your heart
When all you see around you is dark and
Full of ignorance?
Why carry gladness in your heart
When all you see around you is dark and
Full of ignorance?

You might as well just ask:
'Why don't I just not piss?'
Or: 'Why I gotta give up more than a quarter of my Paycheck to go to taxes?'
You won't always have to, brother
So just listen to me when I say
You should just stand up straight

Play within the game and stand up straight
Use your nature given brain
And stand up straight
Breathe in and breathe out and stand up straight
Meta-cognize what you were just thinking about
And stand up straight
Think about thinking for a minute, then stop and
Think about it and stand up straight
Well check it out, that's what meta-cognition is
So you can just bask in that and stand up straight oh...

Check it out, motherfucker
You're not even trying anymore...

So why carry sorrow in your heart?
Who is the creature that you see?
Who is the creature that you see?
What disappointment hold they in store for you?
