Hey brother Christian with your high and mighty errand, your actions speak so loud I can't hear a word you're saying. Hey sister bleeding-heart with all of your compassion, your labors soothe the hurt but can't assuage temptation. Hey Man-of-Science with your perfect rules of measure, can you improve this place with the data that you gather? Hey mother mercy will your loins bear fruit forever? Is your fecundity a trammel or a treasure?
And I want to conquer the world. I'll give all the idiots a brand new religion. I'll put an end to poverty, uncleanliness and toil and promote equality and all of my decisions with a quick wink of the eye and a, "God, you must be joking!"
Hey, Mister Diplomat with your worldly aspirations, did you see your children cry when you left them at the station? Hey moral soldier with your righteous proclamations and precious tomes to fuel your pulpy conflagrations, I want to conquer the world! I'll expose the culprits and feed them to our children. I'll do away with air pollution and then I'll save the whales -- we'll have peace on earth and global communion.
