Then why have we the lion s share?

As if we walk the earth alone

Like infants breaking the cradle

There isn t anything we fail to corrupt

The flip-side of the midas touch

We re walking in a world of glass

With iron footsteps

We do the raindance every night

And i hope the gods will treat us right

And if the sky should tumble down

Will it quench out thirst or crush us to the ground?

Have you a ticket to the greatest event?

The world inside a circus tent

Where clowns debate disarmament

And wildlife live within cages

The parody is never far from the truth

And mankind is the living proof

A dying planet in our arms

We walk the tightrope

The answer s very simple

A world without it s people

Has got to be better than this
