Robert Wyatt - Be Serious lyrics

I really envy Christians I envy m**ms too It must be great to be so sure as a top Hindu or Jew. He said "Pray to God for mercy" He said "Get down on your knees" He said "Ask Him for forgiveness" He said "When you do say please (do us a favour)" And I got no one to turn to when I'm sinking in the sh** I feel so sad and lonely no-one to tell me what to do. He said "Well I shouldn't grumble we all have our ups and down if you just ask Him nicely he'll iron out your frown (I said do us a favour)" And if I don't believe in will power (keep ya hair on) self expressions such a fraud I mean how can I express myself when there's no self to express Be serious Then he put a lid on it Do us a favour Do us a favour I really envy Christians (do us a favour) I envy m**ms too (do us a favour) It must be great to be so sure (do us a favour) Probably do want you (do us a favour) Do us a favour Do us a favour When I've got no one to turn to (do us a favour) when I'm sinking in the ship (do us a favour) Feel so sad and lonely (do us a favour) No-one to tell me what to do (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Do us a favour Do us a favour And I don't believe in willpower (do us a favour) self expressions such a fraud (do us a favour) How can I express myself (do us a favour) when there's no self to express (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Beeee serious (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) Be serious (do us a favour) ...the dust... a building... the universe... Do us a favour Do us a favour Leave it out
