This only makes sense if you're familiar with the red pill/blue pill decision faced in the movie "The Matrix". If you aren't familiar with it, and don't mind finding out without watching the movie, you can read about it here: http://www.arrod.co.uk/essays/matrix.php
(I'd just tell you, but I don't want to spoil it for you if you'd rather see the movie first.)
To the tune of Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville.
I Took the Blue Pill
Goin' to meetings
Givin' warm greetings
To all the brothers there at the Hall.
Listenin' intently
Smilin' contently
We just might survive the End after all!
Chorus:
Wastin' my life away; I took the blue pill.
I've been happy here since my youth.
Some people say, that there's a happier way
But I knew, I had The Truth!
I didn't understand it.
Some people would brand it,
"The Lie", "cult", or "book company".
But I knew they weren't right!
A talk Thursday night
said that we're right; that's good enough for me!
Chorus:
Wastin' my life away; I took the blue pill.
I've been happy here since my youth.
Some people say, that there's a happier way
But I thought,
It's prob'ly The Truth...
Got counseled this Sunday
For lettin' my son play
With neighborhood kids, not from the Hall.
I'm startin' to see now,
It's dawnin' on me now,
That red pill might've been better, after all.
Chorus:
Wasted my life away; I took the blue pill.
I was just so happy here, in my youth.
Now I'm startin' to see, that there's a better way to be.
And I know,
This ain't The Truth.
Yes I'm startin' to see, that there's a better way to be.
And I know,
This ain't The Truth.
