Oh Guanilon thought it was poppycock
to prove that God exists--
And David Hume said it was poppycock
to think that self persists--
Now I don't know if it is poppycock
to believe such things--
But all I seem to know is poppycock
when logic loudly sings:

(chorus)
Poppycock is all I see
examined logically--
it's all poppycock,
poppycock logically, poppycock logically!

There was a time I thought the religious life
contained the truth and way--
I'd pray to God or Son or Holy Ghost
depending on time of day--
But then I read in Soren Kierkegaard
that reason faith might block--
and that's when the love of wisdom clearly said
my life was poppycock!

(chorus--)

So look with me to the march of philosophy
to see what's false and true--
there're proofs for God and modal opacity,
and then, of course, there's grue--
the moral here is, once you know it all,
and got it locked and stocked--
(allegro)
is when a paper appears in the Phil Review
that says "It's poppycock!"

(chorus and repeat)
