And the Lord sat down and crossed his legs
And said Lucy let's just get this straightened out
I read it in the small print somewhere on the 19th page
And I don't know what we're arguing about
There's a fundamental flaw in the way that you do business
It's a classic rookie error I suppose
But I am in the details and you ask too many questions
And you'll never make the grade in peasant clothes
Well I beg to differ Lucy said and stirred her coffee
Every pawn is still a player don't you think?
And let me ask you this, when it comes to satisfaction
Is the middle that much better than the brink?
You see I've got this theory that it's only punctuation
That separates the list from me to you
And it's yet to be established just who is in the details
But I'll take you every time on the overview
And the Lord was full of wrath as he looked over his glasses
And said Adam, perhaps you should have your say
And Adam made a sound something like an exclamation
Said Which of you punks was it made the snakes?
You see I've got this theory that it's only punctuation
That separates the list from you to me
And you can have your little war of full stops and erotemes
But the real power's in parentheses
