Score Keeper
Morality worn like a banner
Waving high in holy manner.
Can't find a moment to be kind.
Can I even tell the time?
Method ethics, munch a bunch.
Spit on those who talk too much.
Walk upon a pompous shore.
Claim the proper, keeping score.
Score keeper, Pain reaper,
Dream killer, Your thriller.
Pontificate for me some more.
Show me how to grasp the core
Of pulpit insecurity.
My death sought in obscurity.
Can't be bothered feeding you
Unless you say I know the truth.
Greed is fine for us who pray.
The rest of you will have to pay.
Score keeper, Grim reaper,
Dream killer, Your thriller.
I call myself a friend of God
Then follow mental path of Mob.
Stone you till you see my way.
Tolerance not in the fray.
Give me everything I want
Or I'll frequent you with haunt.
Greed reeks of morality
If I am too blind to see.
Score keeper, Window peeper,
Dream killer, Your thriller.
Morality blown out my nose
Kept by righteous weeping rose.
I smear my greed upon your face
And wonder why you won't embrace.
Kindness is not keeping score.
Ethics spoken, empty bore.
Would I give to you my coat?
Or simply judge you in a gloat.
Score keeper, Self seeker,
Dream killer, Your thriller.
