Hume on the Brain

(Sung to "Home on the Range")

 

Oh read me some Hume

in a skeptic-packed room,

where the beer and the arguments play--

where often is heard

a reduction absurd--

and the statements are mostly de re!

 

(chorus)

Hume, Hume on the brain--

tends to make all absurdity plain--

by forcing my doubt

to reflectively flout

all the "truths" to which others lay claim!

 

Oh give me relief

from dogmatic belief--

may my logical powers not stray--

should science offend

then my Feyerabend

will repel what my Kuhn doesn't slay!

 

(chorus)
