My search fu is weak. Does anyone have the lyrics to "Sermon?"

Best answer: Hey, do these look right? (cribbed from a YouTube comment)

I declare my disinterest in
the better interest of the
faculty and staff

This is my sermon
This is my sermon
This is my sermon

Bulldoze the community garden
and replace it with glass

This is my sermon
This is my sermon
This is my sermon

Got enough red tape to choke a horse
I don't know why I'm doing it

This is my sermon
This is my sermon
This is my sermon

This is my sermon
This is my sermon
This is my sermon

Yeah, that's how I hear it. Interesting that this raging, super intense song appears to be from the perspective of a jaded school principal. It sounds like murderous punk rock fury, but when you read the lyrics this could just be stuff he's thinking during a glum, drawn-out meeting with the PTA.
