Chalk it up short sightedness of greed
Chalk it up to anything you want

You know that chalk’s still going to bleed
Chalk it up to providence
Chalk it up to whoever’s in the White House now
Chalk it up our ancestors
Chalk it up to what the law now allows
Chalk it up to too much repetition
Chalk it up to rarely saying a word
Chalk it up to the educational system
Chalk it up to the absurd

Chalk it up (Chalk it up) To experience
Chalk it up (Chalk it up) To foolishness
Chalk it up (Chalk it up) Yea chalk it up my friend

To a world without end
Chalk it up to a belief in the Holy One
Chalk it up to a belief in energy or matter plus time plus chance
Chalk it up to our infinite wisdom
Chalk it up to our arrogance
Chalk it up to our selfish ambition
Chalk it up to giving it all away
Chalk it up to prudence
Or whatever her name is today
