The Martin Heidegger Blues

The Martin Heidegger Blues

You got your Existentialism, Phenomenology,

you learn to say the words,

you get a PhD,

but what is all the learn'n gonna do fur you?

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!

You made your reduction,

transcended your ego too,

that's what you discovered,

that you're just a fool,

but the ground of Being,

is closing in on you!

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!

Well, Freud don't scare you,

And Skinner's a fool.

To hear about Husserl,

and you think he's so cool!

But your Cognito

is making a monkey out of you!

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!

What is Truth and Reality?

You read a book by 

Merleau-Ponty,

and you read all 200 pages,

and it makes no sense to youuuuu.

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!

When you're at a Duquesne orgy,

sit'in next to Andy Georgie,

he looks down at your paradigm and says

"Hey, boy that's out of line!"

He says "You better forget about all those traditional schools!"

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!

And then there's Soren Kierkegaard,

who needed some money for bread,

He sat down one day,

and wrote the "Concept of Dread!"

He said, "Either, Or"

"I got the Sickness unto Death" 

Yeah!

That's when you know,

you got the Martin Heidegger blues!
