From the recording The Adventures of Ethical Man
Lyrics
In the adventures of Ethical ManHe never litters or double-parks He fights injustice but not after darkIn the adventures of Ethical Man
In the adventures of Ethical ManHe cleans his plate or gives the birds the crumbs He so considerately steps over bumsIn the adventures of Ethical Man
He can recite all ten commandments with his mind closedHe follows all the rules religiously Our hero gets his E for effort As long as there is nothing good on TV
In the adventures of Ethical ManHe treats women exactly like menHe holds the door open for neither of themIn the adventures of Ethical Man
In the adventures of Ethical ManMother Theresa was more prone to sinAnd if he caught her jaywalking he'd have turned her inIn the adventures of Ethical Man His form fitting suit is all black and whiteThough in the wrong light it appears to be gray on gray Inconvenience is the E-Man's Kryptonite And it’s more powerful than his conscience today
In the adventures of Ethical ManHe's anti-crime and not in favor of drugsHe's anti-Pro-Life except of course for bugsIn the adventures of Ethical Man In the adventures of Ethical ManHe's serious about the speed limitIs he a saint or an idiot?In the adventures of Ethical Man
Hanging up his cape would mean wasting all these shirts with the E on the front I bet Practical Man would use them to wash his car And Cynical Man would write them off on his taxes Ah,but Ethical Man hasn't fallen quite that far
In the adventures of Ethical ManHe takes the blame for 500 years of abuse To every race, creed and color he's no useIn the adventures of Ethical Man, Ethical Man, Ethical Man,
