A geography of a people
Unafraid to win
Buy you up and use you up
And sell you for your skin
Some of them are restless
Some of them are tired
Some of them will praise you as they roast you on a fire
Birds can't see what people see
They're flying in the air
Evil seeds are quick to breed
They'll leave you cold and bare
Who came back to the doorstep
Of an ancient family tree?
Getting his wages in iron and sulphur
Copper, gold, and steel
Some of us are filthy
Some of us are clean
All of us are doomed and fleshy entropy machines
Birds can't see what people see
They're flying in the air
Evil seeds are quick to breed
They'll leave you cold and bare
The meanest grandmother lives the longest
The meanest grandfather lives the longest
The meanest uncle lives the longest
The meanest brother lives the longest
Birds can't see what people see
They're flying in the air
Evil seeds are quick to breed
They'll leave you cold and bare
Birds can't see what people see
They're flying in the air
Evil seeds are quick to breed
They'll leave you cold and bare
