|
Across the skies the monuments stand |
|
Shrines of wonder, man worshipping man |
|
Computer ethics mock a dying land |
|
Down below like rats in a cage |
|
Success, survival, two needles in hay |
|
It's Romans One facing satan's stare |
|
Pull down the forests we need more wood |
|
Extend the grazing we need more food |
|
Burning our bridges before the flood |
|
Out on the oceans where it's relatively safe |
|
It's not so easy being big as a whale |
|
We're all in a race on a bigger scale |
|
Homosapien, I've had enough |
|
Homosapien, I'm giving up |
|
At best your wisdom's a shot in the dark |
|
So make yourself pretty, make yourself rich |
|
Leopardskin, sealskin, money and sex |
|
Apartheid, genocide, thalidomide, life |
|
It's your choice |
|
But mountains |
|
Are holy places |
|
And beauty is free |
|
We can still walk |
|
Through the garden |
|
Our earth was once green |
