about

Nerd Rage: Honestly I think mCRT spent his whole life preparing for this track. I don’t mean any offense on this cut, but if you think Harry Potter is a gateway to witchcraft or some magnetic necklace or bracelet is going to make you more flexible... I have compassion for you. Additional lyrics and original concept track by mCRT. Bass guitar by Dark Force. Samples include “Big Bang” by Cursive. Music inspired by mCRT’s verse, RATM and the Beastie Boys.

lyrics

[funky49]
nerd rage is my state of rhyme
separate from church and my state of mind
rigid beliefs got no appeal, tis
season for reason is how I feel, I
appreciate Christ parables but not
guilt to burn my D&D manuals, Harry
Potter ain’t teaching kids spells but its
magical how reading helps you spell well
young Earth creationists damn I'm pissed cause
Fred and Dino Flintstooone is your gist
dinosaurs went rawh rawh hey, but
Adam didn't ride 'em in back his hey day
Pope Palpatine leads creeps, in-
appropriate touching with all the young sheep
father figure smoke screen there’s fire
burning in your own hell is my desire

[mCRT]
Fuck you. You subvert what you know to be truth
Fuck your agenda
and the way you try to bend the rules
If you've got God on your side,
who gives a damn if you lie?
So I'll reiterate: fuck you, I hope you die
Of cancer of the AIDS or some other disease
So you'll vanish right along with your hypocrisy
So hit me up with your
falsified documents of nonsense
Just keep on praying for fiery rain and apocalypse
I've gotta bitch 'bout you, you and
your friends are all liars
I fucking hate you and I really hope you die in a fire
Cause you're playing with fire,
you are about to get burned
Christian Science is a fucking contradiction in terms
You say you give it all over to the guy in the sky
But when you see the white light
you slide into an MRI
Your beliefs a little bit of ironic mojo jojo
Don't believe in evolution but you act like a bonobo

[funky49]
I can’t stand it, how you damn shit
information wants to be free so hack the planet
atoms to atoms and dust to dust
reproduce your data or I can't trust you much
Disrobe Kobe of magic bracelets, face it,
baller bling is for basket cases
Crystal balls tarot real like Jack Sparrow
your facts skinny like Mia Farrow
scandal schism, fundamentalism
how bout some fucking tolerant decisions?
be impassioned but rational no screechin'
question everything even pulpit preachin'
living life so when you die, you ex-
pect high fives from a guy in the sky, I
rage at beliefs only out of a page
get out the Middle Ages and
join the Space Age, nerd rage!
