Earth vs. Man
Over the course of time
Man has come a long way
From drawing on cave walls
To launching probes to the Milky Way
Of the many species on Earth
Only one, reckless and cruel
Forsaking innocent lives
To quench thirst of his own rules
He’s proved himself
A pretty smart guy
So it makes no sense at all
How he can cause us all to die
A mathematical genius
Philosopher of intelligence
Politically correct
Morality of relevance
A craftsman with all the tools
Master of construction
In bed with allies and enemies
A mastermind of destruction
A sad day it will be
When the sun shines no more
As our Earth burns to a cinder
And then man will know the score
For man had to play a game
Where no one really wins
And all life on Earth will die
Paying the cost for man’s sins
