Bad Religion - Mediocrity lyrics

I've spent my life observing and then pondering this place and never has confusion ever ceased I've also heard a lot of exaltation for our kind and sanctimonious reverence for peace The stories from our childhood condition us to think that beauty is a basic human trait but how are they reconciled with daily realities like poverty and dominance and rape But you have to be stone cold dead not to see overwhelming incongruity as we search for suggestions to remedy... ...Mediocrity If you just sit back and record what you see the tragic and exquisite are the same to some degree but most events depict a common theme: there's far more disorder than there is harmony I said you've got to be stone cold dead not to see overwhelming incongruity It is pointless to search for teleology Mediocrity (always mediocrity)
