Everything Under The Son

The reality of the universe
brings about humility,
making little man's boastings,
just an act of futility.

Telescopes getting stronger,
seeing beyond the sun,
discovering we're ever smaller,
than when we first begun:

Discovering we can't control
or even have the ability,
mastering our own fate,
just an act of futility.

Life full of self indulgence,
we're phony and not legit,
all is vanity under the sun,
deep down we really know it.

Wine, women and song
forever on the run,
money, success, power,
everything under the sun:

Is vanity of vanities
refusing to admit,
all is vanity under the sun,
deep down we really know it.

When light begins to shine
and we see above the sun,
our true purpose is revealed
seeing everything under the Son.

Beyond pedagogical knowledge
the life of the mind,
the triviality of the ivorybill,
the vanity of the time.
