RWilhelm Lyr Req: I'm Goin' to a Hole in the Ground (11) Lyr Add: I'M GOIN' TO A HOLE IN THE GROUND 03 Nov 99


I hope it isn't an anticlimax at this point but here is the song I referred to in the "Atheist Hymns" thread:

I'M GOIN' TO A HOLE IN THE GROUND – R. Wilhelm

Well they say "seek and ye shall find "
And I know that it's the truth
'Cause seekin and a-findin
Is the way I spent my youth
I found Jesus in the springtime
I found Buddha in the fall
I found Krishna at the airport
L. Ron Hubbard at the Mall

Chorus:
Well when I die
It's just as well
Ain't goin to heaven
Ain't goin to hell
Ain't goin up
Ain't goin down
I'm just goin to a hole in the ground

They all gave me a book to read
And told me what to wear
They made me quit my drinkin
And they made me cut my hair
I gave them all my money
And all my worldly stuff
Then one day, broke and sober
I said "Boys, I've had enough"

Now I believe that life's a molecule
That crawled out of the slime
And the stars appeared at random
On the grid of space and time
It doesn't give me comfort
And it don't make me feel blessed
But at least I won't be bothered
When I take my final rest
