The True Enemy
Geoff Berner

Why did God put Evil in the world, God damn it? nWas it just an accident, or did he plan it? nWell, the fact is that God made the world to entertain himself, nAnd to keep things interesting, he took a little Evil off the shelf. nBut to do God's work, evil's got to be set free, nTo fight Boredom, the true enemy.nBoredom is the true enemy. nWith all the bad things put away, nLife's just a boring little play, nAnd Boredom is the true enemy. nWhat made Eve and Adam fall so fast? nA snake in the grass? nNo. Boredom. nnWhat made Pontius Pilate shrug and wash his hands? nClerical demands? No. Boredom. nWhat made Mohammed Atta wanna visit New York City? nAmerican foreign policy? nNo, same reason as anybody: Boredom is the true enemy.nBoredom is the true enemy. nNow before you start to answer, nRemember: it takes more lives than cancer. nBoredom is the true enemy. nnWhat makes the local teenagers so vile? nThe latest music style? No. Boredom. nWhat makes the Vancouver Police Beat up the harmless protester?nAre they products of incest, Or? nWell, yes. But that's caused by Boredom. nWhat makes genocide flare up with such tedious frequency? nSome kind of evil flea? People, honestly. nBoredom is the true enemy. Boredom is the true enemy.nnSo it's really not that nice to want to stamp out every vice, nWhen boredom is the true enemy. nSongs about cars and angels and the rain must be disdained. nThey are the enemy. nA thousand books chock full of chicken soup nFor the souls of the stupid Enemy, nStories and plays that come with a Happy Ever After guarantee?nNow that's a goddamn tradedy, nWhen Boredom is the true enemy. nBoredom is the true enemynnSo join me in consensus, you're either with us or against us, nBoredom is the true nGo ahead and sue, But applaud when I am through, nBecause Boredom is the true enemy! n
