Eighth Day

In the beginning was the word, man said: Let there be more light Electric scenes and laser beams, neon brights the light abhorring nights On the second day he said: Let's have a gas Hydrogen and cholera and pest Let's make some germs, we'll poison the worms Man will never be suppressed And he said: Behold what I have done I've made a better world for everyone Nobody laugh, nobody cry World without end, forever and ever Amen, amen, amen On the third we get green and blue for pie On the fourth we send rockets to the sky On the fifth make the beasts and submarines On the sixth man prepares his final dream: In our image, let's make robots for our slaves Imagine all the time that we can save Computers, machines, the silicon dream Seventh he retired from the scene And he said: Behold what I have done I've made a better world for everyone Nobody laugh, nobody cry World without end, forever and ever Amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen) On the eighth day machine just got upset A problem man had never seen as yet No time for flight, a blinding light And nothing but a void, forever night He said: Behold what man has done There's not a world for anyone Nobody laughed, nobody cried World's at an end, everyone has died Forever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen) He said: Behold what man has done There's not a world for anyone Nobody laughed, nobody cried World's at an end, everyone has died Forever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen) (Amen)
