dorian electra - sensual lyrics
[verse 1]
there ain’t nothin in the mind
which ain’t been in the sensations
let me take you on a sensation vacation
through sense experience, the mind is created
as well as rules to process raw sense data
for empiricists, yeah this is the word
tabula rasa, a blank slate to the world
when we are born there are no thoughts in our mind
but through experience, they’re built up over time
[chorus]
it’s all sensual
{sensual, sensual}
it’s all sensual
[verse 2]
but for the rationalists who do believe
that the precious senses only deceive
they say the source of truth about the world outside
is human reason, inside your mind
must not succ-mb (un-uh) to sensual seduction
must overcome (yeah) through rational deduction
locked up in logic in the search for what’s real
cut off from their senses, they forget how to feel
[chorus]
they say it’s not sensual
try to deny the sensual
(and say it’s all rational)
[verse 3]
you say “i think, therefore i exist”
the one and only certain truth you insist
distrust your senses, all you know to be true
is that you can’t deny the thinking mind, of me and of you
is it really all so sensual?
is it really all so sensual?
is it really all so sensual?
is it really all so sensual?
can you justify? (your beliefs)
can you testify? to the sensory?
can you justify? (your beliefs)
can you testify? to the sensory?
[verse 4: baba brinkman]
hey, rationalism is on top
’cause lately empiricism has gone pop
there ain’t no tabula rasa, john locke
better check your senses against logic, non-stop
no conspiracy, lyrically, i empirically expose the heresy in empiricism fearlessly
it’s mathematical, not magical
radical sense data on its own is just not rational
ask a developmental psychologist
descartes was right, we have innate knowledges
not platonic forms like plato thought it was
darwin explains how they became part of us
the brain is too complicated for blank-slatists
organized in advance of experience, baby
and that’s a priori, so a posteriori can kiss my posterior, alright?
some things the senses cannot perceive
sometimes reason can not take you where it’s trying to lead
they both have limits baby soon you will see
how it all comes down to somewhere in between
[chorus]
they say it’s not sensual
try to deny the sensual
(and say it’s all rational)
