"We divide the world to stop us feeling frightened." While we all succumb to binary thinking about some things, the most binary thinkers I know would disagree that they are fearful.. (I think they are.)

Somewhere in your wardrobe, I'd be willing to betThere's a t-shirt proudly bearing the silhouette of Che GuevaraHe was revolutionary, yeah, he wore a cool hatBut behind the design I think you might find it's not quite as simple as thatChe was a bit of a homophobe, Che was a bit of a homophobe, apparentlyChe was a bit of a homophobe, Che was a bit of a homophobe[Chorus:]This is a song in defense of the fenceA little sing along, an anthem to ambivalenceThe more you know, the harder you will find itTo make up your mind, it, doesn't really matter if you findYou can't see which grass is greenerChances are it's neither, and either way it's easierTo see the difference, when you're sitting on the fenceSomewhere in your house, I'd be willing to betThere's a picture of that grinning hippy from Tibet - the Dalai LlamaHe's a lovely, funny fella, he gives soundbites galoreBut let's not forget that back in Tibet, those funky monks used to dick the poor, yeahAnd the Buddhist line about future lives is the perfect way to stop the powerless rising up, I reckonAnd he tells the poor they will live again, but he's rich now so it's easy for him to say[Chrous]I'm taking the stand in defense of the fenceI got a little band playing anthems to ambivalenceWe divide the world into terrorists and heroesInto normal folk and weirdosInto good people and pedosInto things that give you cancer and the things that cure cancerAnd the things that don't cause cancer, but there's a chance they will cause cancer in the futureWe divide the world to stop us feeling frightenedInto wrong and into right andInto black and into white andInto real men and fairiesInto status quo and scaryYeah we want the world binary, binaryBut it's not that simple.And your dogs have a bigger carbon footprint than a four wheel driveYea your dogs have a bigger carbon footprint than a four wheel driveAnd your dogs have a bigger carbon footprint than a four wheel driveAnd so does your baby, maybe you oughta trade him in for a PriusRock![Chorus:]Having a rant in defense of the fenceGot a 60-piece band playing tributes to ambivalenceWe divide the world into liberals and gun-freaksInto atheists and fundiesInto tee-tot'lers and junkiesInto chemical and naturalInto fictional and factualInto science and supernaturalBut it's actually naturally not that white and blackYou'll beDividing us into terrorists and heroesInto normal folk and weirdosInto good people and pedosInto things that give you cancer and the things that cure cancerAnd things that don't cause cancer, but there's a chance they will cause cancer in the futureWe divide the world to stop us feeling frightenedInto wrong and into right andInto black and into white andInto real men and fairiesInto parrots and canariesYeah we want the world binary, binary - 0100100!The more you know, the harder you will find itTo make up your mind, it doesn't really matter if you findYou can't see which grass is greenerChances are it's neither, and either way it's easierTo see the difference when you're sitting on the fenceCause it's not that simple...

Andreas Blochberger

Ich frage mich, ob +Tim Minchin jemals in Deutschland auftreten wird...Ja oder nein? Manchmal ist es eben doch binär ;-)

Pixelmaniac

Oh, that small five-tone horn insert...Wonderful.

TheEndKing

I love the complete stone silence in the room while he performs this song.

Cyril Figgis

You know I just realized Tim Minchin sounds a bit like the voice that sings the opening lyrics to the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Calvin Smith

After this song I'm on the fence regarding Tim Minchin's talent.

PikaBread2

Flabby PigLegs

Ok, so we live in an analog world?

Analytical Atheist

I feel like this song has two distinct messages.1. Most dichotomies are false.2. Certainty is usually unwarranted, because most issues are so complicated that the amount of knowledge required for certainty is ludicrously high.

Whenever I am exasperated by my seemingly chronic ability to understand foreign policy, I listen to this song.

göögle are pagans
