Vic Chesnutt - Speed Racer Lyrics

have I learned anything from all of these lectures?
I think it's my attention span clipped by TV at an early age
well who heard the radio when you are five years old?
I used to watch Speed Racer with that hyper attitude
that carried me here to this fluorescent enlightenment

I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim
Oh, I, I, I, I am intelligent, I am intelligent
I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim
Oh, I, I, I, I am an atheist, I am an atheist

the idea of divine order is essentially crazy
the laws of action and reaction
are the closest thing to truth in the universe
so don't try to spray me with your archaic rites of soul
your vision is a biological one
I can dodge the thunderbolts
and scratch out an existence on this glorious but simple plane
I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim
Oh, I, I, I, I am intelligent, I am intelligent
I'm not a victim, I'm not a victim
Oh, I, I, I, I am an atheist, I am an atheist
