Hypothetically Speaking, What Would You Do?

Well, since I'm on the subject of annoying songs, the first time I heard this song I hated it, but then I read the lyrics and re listened and found it profound! I listen to it over and over again every once in a while and try to answer the question! DISCLAIMER: I found the best vid. I could that didn't show anything I could get in much trouble for. The last picture in the vid. I'M sure is doctored! I have no doubt that the Wiz.... I mean the Prez. has ever given anyone the bird publicly!!! I do like a lot of the imagery however!




THE FLAMING LIPS lyrics - "The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power)"
If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switchWould you do it?
If you could make everybody poor just so you could be richWould you do it?
If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your backWould you do it?
If you could take all the love without giving any backWould you do it?
And so we cannot know ourselves or what we'd really do...
With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?
If you could make your own money and then give it to everybody Would you do it?
If you knew all the answers and could give it to the massesWould you do it?
No No No No No No
Are you crazy?
It's a very dangerous thing to do exactly what you want...
Because you cannot know yourself or what you'd really do...
With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

Why it makes me think:
As an American we have a lot of power!!!!!
As a Christian, I have a big responsibility to the world!!!!!!
What am I doing with all my power?
What are we doing with all our power?
