One dawn four million years ago We swung down from the trees Stood upright on savannah grass Then spawned like a disease Conquered earth, air, water, fire Left footprints on the Moon Yet cannot sate desire and hate That fates us to our doom Are we doomed?
Know how to split the atom Learn E is mc2 But cannot feed the starving Without loaves & fishes shared No wisdom in our 'holy' books They cause us only pain It's time we took a closer look Before we die for shame We claim to love our children But we breast-fed them on lies Leave unto them a dying world While Mother Nature cries
Hark! Hark! Hellhounds bark We dwell in borrowed times Never feed our need for greed Nor heed the poets' rhymes Weak! Weak! Sheep we bleat Lambs for the slaughter bred The leaders who deceive us They will bleed us 'til we're dead
We've dreams above our station Shot out rockets to the skies Meanwhile back here down on Earth Our fragile planet dies... our planet dies!
Hark! Hark! Hellhounds bark We dwell in borrowed times Never feed our need for greed Nor heed the poets' rhymes Weak! Weak! Sheep we bleat Lambs for the slaughter bred The leaders who deceive us They will bleed us 'til we're dead
Humanity, Humanity A breeding liability! Detested pest - A naked ape For gold and oil will kill & rape
Detested pest - this naked ape For gold and oil will kill & rape A threat to Earth's ecology My rhyme's against Humanity!
