The Idle Mind

Of old cliches and well worn quotes i've had my bellyfull
The idle mind is the devil's workshop that seems a load of bull
If you pardon the expression with words i may seem coarse
But apart from Nature i don't know of a supernatural force.

Many of the most heinous of crimes not committed by those of idle mind
But by people of high energy not what one would call the lazy kind
The religious zealots will tell you that all of god's children are blessed
And that all non believers by satan are possessed.

In a World of religious mania fundamentalism abound
And amongst their paranoia their fear of those different to them is to be found
To them all agnostics and atheists are bad in every way
They do not even have a god to which to kneel to and pray.

The idle mind is the devil's workshop to me this doesn't seem right
Most criminals are not lazy though their souls bereft of light
To cover up for their crimes they lie so easily
The idle mind is the devil's workshop seems a load of bull to me.
