This is not like forever
This is more about getting the job done
Save the morals for after
Because there just might be none
I know we're not talking Mary
But haven't you heard a word I've said
You can't go saving it all for tomorrow
For all you know you'll be dead

For the sake of man
I mean you've got it good
You should be taking what every decent man would
For the sake of man
Don't leave it up to faith
You're going nowhere 'til you have finished up your plate

This is all about history
About fulfilling the work of your kin
You accept what god offers
If you defy him, that's a sin
So it all tastes like garbage
But it didn't cost you no dough
You want St:Peter to open those golden gates
Don't you ever say no.

For the sake of man
I mean you've got it good
You should be taking what every decent man would
For the sake of man
Don't leave it up to faith
You're going nowhere 'til you have finished up your plate
