Lyrics

Ever since the days we were living in the caves Some assumed leadership others became slaves Brother against brother Cain & Abel were both wrong At each other since the dawn of civilisation We ran out of the darkness like dirty human haunts Into blazing enlightenment they call the renaissance Dividing of the classes breeding ignorance & hate Remember what you get what you amalgamate church & state Lest we forget? Time waits for no one it's forever moving on Colonial development employment of the gun Kings & queens & presidents, power shifting schemes Ending in a blaze of bombs & artillery Lest we forget? Here we're living now in what they call a Modern world Documents are signed & the banners are unfurled A funny little people on a spinning little ball The higher up the ladder now The further down you must fall Lest we forget?
