about

This is a slightly different mix to the one appearing on By The Banks Of The A350. To be honest though, the best version is the one I perform live with Joe, Paul and Chris. If I had the time and money I'd record all of my solo bedroom recordings again in a proper studio like I did with 'A Better Way', but it's not going to happen unless I win the lottery. As for Richard Dawkins, how can you critique something which you don’t know anything about? Dawkins' caricature of Christianity is based on fundamentalist Christian assertions. It’s easy to bash Christianity when you confuse Christians with Creationists. Just take a chill pill Richard, for heaven's sake. You'll give yourself a coronary and then where will you be?

lyrics

Mr. Dawkins

He's got credentials
He's academically strong
He's fundamental
He's fundamentally wrong

Mr Dawkins when you die
When you wave this world goodbye
Will you ask the question why why why?
Mr Dawkins when you sit
At the bottom of the pit
Will you still claim this is it?

He's a believer
He's a believer in himself
He's an achiever
He's better than anyone else

Mr Dawkins when you die
When you wave this world goodbye
Will you ask the question why why why?
Mr Dawkins can you aspire
To be elevated higher
Than the burning lake of fire?

He is a winner
He's the champion of the world
He's not a sinner
He knows that sin's for little girls

He is a teacher
He's got the answers in his book
He wants to teach you
And he wants you to take the hook

Mr Dawkins when you die
When you wave this world goodbye
Will you ask the question why why why?
Mr Dawkins when you sit
At the bottom of the pit
Will you still claim this is it?
