vanity of vanities
vanity of vanities
the world is insanity
insanity’s the world
vanity of vanities
vanity of vanities
insanity’s the world
and the world stands on gold

and for gold you buy mead
and what’s sour isn’t sweet
and what’s sweet isn’t sour
and what’s rice isn’t flour

and what’s flour isn’t rice
and what’s mean isn’t nice
and what’s nice isn’t mean
and what’s fat isn’t lean

and what’s lean isn’t fat
and a mouse is not a cat
and a cat is not a mouse
and a shack is not a house

and what’s a house is not a shack
and what’s white isn’t black
and what’s black isn’t white
and the peasant is right

and right is the peasant
that jarring isn’t pleasant
and pleasant isn’t jarring
and healing means scarring

and scarring means healing
and giving isn’t stealing
and stealing isn’t giving
and dying isn’t living

and living isn’t dying
and cooking isn’t frying
and to fry is not to cook
and to see is to look

and to look is to see
and to think is to be
and to be is to think
and to grow is not to shrink

and to shrink is not to grow
and what’s faster isn’t slow
and what’s slower isn’t faster
and a slave is not a master

and a master’s not a slave
and the peasant’s in the grave
in the grave is the peasant
and it’s jarring, and it’s pleasant
