lyrics
The animals that you love
Given the chance will tear you limb from limb
Every creeping thing in the dirt
Given the chance would gladly feast upon your skin
You say that's how the world works
The smaller fish is eaten by the bigger
You say that's how the world works
Oh, but this doesn't work, this doesn't work
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Pass the word through the wire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
The ones that we left behind
We call them savages, oh barbarians
In their houses and restaurants and streetcars
Oh barbarians
Wires grown into their chests
Pumping blood to computers
You say that's how the world works
Oh but this doesn't work, this doesn't work
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Pass the word through the wire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Given the chance will tear you limb from limb
Every creeping thing in the dirt
Given the chance would gladly feast upon your skin
You say that's how the world works
The smaller fish is eaten by the bigger
You say that's how the world works
Oh, but this doesn't work, this doesn't work
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Pass the word through the wire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
The ones that we left behind
We call them savages, oh barbarians
In their houses and restaurants and streetcars
Oh barbarians
Wires grown into their chests
Pumping blood to computers
You say that's how the world works
Oh but this doesn't work, this doesn't work
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
Pass the word through the wire
To drive us back to the trees?
Did they discover fire
To drive us back to the trees?
