RATIONAL HUMOROUS SONGS
lyrics by Albert Ellis, Ph.D.
(Copyright 1977-80 by the Institute for Rational Living, 45 E. 65 th St., NY, NY 10021)
PERFECT RATIONALITY
(Tune: Luigi Denza, Funiculi, Funicula)
You all know this song, but if the title doesn't ring a bell, play on your computer here ==> http://ingeb.org/Lieder/funiculi.mid and everybody sing along! Ah one, ah two . . .
Some think the world must have a right direction,
And so do I, and so do I!
Some think that, with the slightest imperfection,
They can’t get by—and so do I!
For I, I have to prove I’m superhuman,
And better far than people are!
To show I have miraculous acumen—
And always rate among the Great!
Perfect, perfect rationality
Is, of course, the only thing for me!
How can I ever think of being
If I must live fallibly?
Rationality must be a perfect thing for me! |
