Metaethics! Guitar: Michael Smith.
Lyrics:
It ain’t necessarily so
it ain’t necessarily so
What ethicist say
Can sound good in a way
But it ain’t necessarily so
Morality trumps other oughts
Morality trumps other oughts
No rational action
Can be an infraction
Morality trumps other oughts
For Eudaemonia
(You get the idea)
Be virtuous by day and night!
Departures from virtue
Are all gonna hurt you!
Sometimes I wanna say “yeah, right!”
We always give laws to ourselves
We always give laws to ourselves
We lose our potential
For being agential
When we break them laws
From ourselves
I say it ain’t necessarily so
It ain’t necessarily so
i’ll say this, though, frankly
They’ll stare at me blankly:
It ain’t necessarily so!
