Man thinks 'cause he rules the earth he can do with it as he please
And if things don't change soon, he will
Oh, man has invented his doom First step was touching the moon.
* Now there's a woman on my block She just sit there as the night grows still
She say who gonna take away his license to kill ?
Now, they take him and they teach him and they groom him for life
And they set him on a path where he's bound to get ill
Then they bury him with stars Sell his body like they do used cars.
( * )
Now, he's hell-bent for destruction, he's afraid and confused
And his brain has been mismanaged with great skill
All he believe are his eyes And his eyes, they just tell him lies.
( * )
Ya may be a noisemaker, spirit maker Heartbreaker, backbreaker
Leave no stone unturned May be an actor in a plot
That might be all that you got 'Til your error you clearly learn.
Now he worships at an altar of a stagnant pool And when he sees his reflection,
he's fulfilled
Oh, man is opposed to fair play He wants it all and he wants it his way.
