Craig Anstey - Dogma (Original)

Lyrics:

Your prodigious vocabulary has me groveling in envy
You awe me with your insight on human psychology
You daunt me with your savviness of World history
I can only marvel when you preach of philosophy and your ideology
Your take on organized religion made me abandon my faith
Your political skepticism made me question our fate
You're a human encyclopedia of pop culture trivia
you always seem to know the news before the mainstream media

They say knowledge is power, I guess that makes you a god
I'll be your disciple, for your words are dogma
Open my mind and inspire me please
Let me outta this box and into the formerly unknown

Well,you're well versed in Shakespeare and quick to quote or paraphrase
The words of an author or the dialogue of a play
You can spout off statistics, lecture on linguistics
you're a connasseur , a discerning critic to the artists

you're cultured and sophisticated
Intellectual and educated
Confident and tenacious
Uncompromisingly studious
Full of proverbs and aphorisms, you're all knowing, all wise
No matter the complexity you can summarize

They say knowledge is power, I guess that makes you a god
I'll be your disciple, for your words are dogma
Open my mind and inspire me please
Let me outta this box and into the formerly unknown

If you sense a dose satire or sarcasm in this song
I wont be the one to tell a genius that hes wrong
