Medicine - STRFKR

Composed by：Joshua Hodges

Don't you see we have something here

Which I will call not philosophy

Except in the most ancient sense

Of basic curiosity

Never remember

Your birthday

Or anything you like

Sorry so helpless

So help you

Anyway you'd like

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

The following of them does not depend on believing in anything

In obeying anything or on doing any specific rituals

Although rituals are included for certain purposes

Because it is a purely experimental approach to life

Never remember

Your birthday

Or anything you like

Sorry so helpless

So help you

Anyway you'd like

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

Take your medicine

This is something like a person

Who has defective eyesight and is seeing

Spots and all sorts of illusions

And goes to an ophthalmologist to correct his vision

Buddhism is therefore a corrective of psychic vision

It is to be dis-enthralled by the game of Maya

It is not incidentally

To regard the Maya as something evil

But to regard it as a good thing

Around the British Museum and one day

I came across a shop

That had a notice over the window which said

Philosophical

Now even as a boy I knew something about philosophy

But I could not imagine what philosophical instruments might be

So I went up to the window and there displayed

Were chronometers slide rules scales

And all kinds of what we would now call scientific instruments

Because science used to be called natural philosophy

Because as Aristotle says

The beginning of philosophy is wonder

Philosophy is man's expression of curiosity about everything

His attempt to make sense of the world

Primarily through his intellect

That is to say his faculty for thinking
