lyrics

They tore down the mountains
Blocked off the streams
Denied the real to live in a dream
Turned the beauty of a woman
Into sickly glamour
Turned the sheltering sky into a hammer

Some still admire what others deplore
Does anybody see the world as it was before
Man unmade
Making himself
Miserably

What was the world like before it was unmade by man?
Ask the domestic cat scampering on the pavement
who still things she is a tiger in the jungle.

Does anybody see the world as it was before
Man unmade
Making himself
Miserably

If God exists, why does he allow this?
It is not God who allows this, my friend
It is you and me
Man making himelf miserably

Does anybody see the world as it was made before
Man unmade
Making himself
Miserably
