Rooted

On First Root

Jesus went into the desert for forty days and forty nights

Had to get his act together, parables eating punchlines

Devil took him to the hilltop showed him the riches of the valley

He said i can get you all this for a small agent's fee

I Can't be rooted

That's what jesus said

I Can't be rooted

I know you think that we are suited

But I just can't be rooted

Some say his name was Wang

He faced off a tank in Tienemann

Cos' he thought his goverment was a tad totalitarian

Soldier from inside the tank said "son you might regret this later

Hop out the way so we dont have to turn you into rice paper"

I Can't be rooted

That's what Wang said

I Can't be rooted

I know that my weight loss is mooted

But I just can't be rooted

I just can't be rooted

I could be in charge of immigration

So i could shut the door to others

Or believe in a higher power

So I can go and kill my brothers

I could win the people with a string of unachieveable promises

Or fight on Cronulla Beach with other guys whose heads are penises

But I just can't be rooted

Look what you can achieve

If you can't be rooted

I can't be rooted

Sing along with me

If you can't be rooted

Sieze the hour, fight the power

Trim 2 minutes off your shower

That is, if you can't be rooted
