I've got a question for your consideration I'll make you privy to my contemplation Let me say in my defense I know it goes against all common sense It's not our nature Not what we've been taught Flies in the face of every lie we've bought It's hard to see it Harder to explain I know it cuts against the grain Wouldn't it be strange if riches made you poor And everything you owned left you wanting more? Wouldn't it be strange to question what it's for? Wouldn't it be strange? I know we've got some interest to protect A set of dots we're committed to connect It makes us nervous in light of how it's been To play a little game of pretend Wouldn't it be strange if power made you weak And victory came to those who turned the other cheek? Wouldn't it be strange to welcome your defeat? Wouldn't it be strange? Wouldn't it be strange to find out in the end The first will be the last and all the losers win? Wouldn't it be strange if Jesus came again? Wouldn't it be strange?
