EVO - A Progressive Journey PART II - The Evolution Suite - Scene IV
lyrics
Fire burns in Troy,
Cartage lays sieged,
Alesia starves.
Paris is sacked and
Granada gives in,
Razed kingdoms fall overseas.
Bastille is taken
From San Juan marches Spain
Cadiz gets bombed in revenge.
Kristallnacht’s on,
and Pearl Harbour’s attacked,
Little Boy’s over Japan
We were just monkeys on the grass,
Straighten up, overcome, we cannot stall.
Killed the ones that were not like us,
Just one kind, just one race, and just one man.
Now we feel free to claim the land,
Free at last, full of power and resolve.
Be prepared we reach for the stars.
Run or die we will stop for no one, no!
Cut that tree, pick the wood, a bonfire will do.
Chop the hill, take the ore, gonna make us some tools.
Sharp it up, make it cut, good to pierce, good to slash.
Take that wheat, make it beer, so we can all get drunk.
Tame the beasts, you will see, how useful they can be,
Use their lives, use their skin, take their milk and their meat.
Ride the land, travel fast, nothing lies out of hand.
We’ll build boats, cross the sea, we’ll find treasures to seize.
Get up there are things we must do.
Wake up son, hurry up it is time to go.
We must make a man out of you.
Sign in here, you felt lost but you were found.
For our gods and our country too.
Raise your head, feel the pride we work as one.
Hear the calling, join our troops.
It is done, now perform we are honor bound.
Shoot ‘em up, they are thrash, born on the wrong side.
Loath their skin, loath their ways, them inferior kind.
Shame on you, petty fools, bow down to our rule,
We are smart, we are pure, we are progress and light.
Am I smart, am I pure, am I progress and light?
You are smart, you are pure, you bring progress and light.
I am smart, I am pure, I bring progress and light,
We are smart, we are pure, we are the progress and the light.
