Outsiders and Logic Speech

Who am I to say what good really is?

This unfortunate misunderstanding
Is the key to established life you see
For good is a concept of fellowship
As well as making reason real for you!
Damnation is an ideal of mankind
An' the only reason for mistaking 
To recapture the lesson we are taught
We are given the right to be- good!

Just as the earth we walk upon is full
Of the Outsiders and Logic's alike
The primates of our past are reflected
In the pool of color, the other guy's shirt!
So how is mankind to survive this way?
The answer is in the combination!
For every skill is the skills you must use
To rid yourself of the virtue of 'good'.
