LYRICS:
We blamed the beast when our primal fear turned us to stone
We saw the threat, but we knew we are not alone
We met the beast of the forest and we brought it home
We didn't sweat when we took Mother Nature's throne
We tamed the flames to warm our house from base to roof
We flipped the world like a blue coin and yet it moves
Yeah, it moves
And yet it moves
And yet it moves at my discretion
Then followed suit by all of our planet system
And those who stand in the way of progress
Round up those heretics who defy their purposes
Hang them, hang them out to dry I say
Hang them, hang them out to dry I say
We believe in what we can see
The shortest way is the most sensible
As we wield our proven razor
We cut away what is dispensable
I split the see of superstition
And found uncharted land no one ever dreamed of
We left behind all our primal urges
And took our rightful place atop the throne of all life
And yet you move at my, at my discretion
Then followed suit by all of our planet system
And those who stand in the way of progress
Round up those heretics who defy their purpose
Hang them, hang them out to dry I say
Hang them, hang them out to dry I say
We believe in what we can see
The shortest way is the most sensible
As we wield our proven razor
We cut away what is dispensable
Cut away
Hear as the parrots try to speak on their own
Hear all the nonsense that they shriek all at once
See as the parrots try to fly on their own
See how they're falling from the sky one by one
Watch now as I wrote the end
I'm done and the ink has dried
I would rather drop the torch
Let it lose its flame
Rather would I bury it
Than defile its name
The end is clear
'Cause it always starts the way it ends
With a big bang
That's why we must give how much we took
I know I will
Leave my body to gravity
Decompose and feed the soil
Leave my body to gravity
Decompose and feed the soil
Nothing awaits
Nothing is waiting for me
I wrote the end, the ink has dried
I only hope I got it right
I had to see just how you tried
I have to leave to make it right
Because I was there when fin turned leg
I was there when fish turned man
Another day, another me
Will find again a sense of community
Two infants mutually
Pushing their cradles perpetually
Two infants mutually
Pushing their cradles perpetually
Two infants mutually
Pushing their cradles
But will we know who gave
The initial impulse
Two infants mutually
Pushing their cradles
But will we know who gave
The final repulse
Take one more step toward the light
And give up who you are
Take one more step toward the light
And give up who you are
