WHO WE ARE

This Political Folk tune is set to a rustic, tribal Samba beat – perfect for dancing naked about Stonehenge – and asks if we are evolved enough as a species for the world we’re trying to create for ourselves today.
WHO WE ARE
TAKE ME BACK TEN THOUSAND YEARS
AND LET ME ROAM THE PLAINS
THERE’S TOO MUCH TO DO TODAY
I NEED TO BREAK THESE CHAINS
LET ME HUNT A BUFFALO
WITH ARROWS MADE OF STONE
LET MY FATHER BE NEAR BY
MY SON WHEN HE HAS GROWN
AS THE HUNTER FADES AWAY
PERHAPS WE’VE GONE TOO FAR
AS THE FARMER GOES ALONG
NOW TELL ME WHO WE ARE
SEND ME ON PAST YESTERDAY
OR TURN THIS WORLD AROUND
WE HAVE TIME TO SEARCH THE STARS
BUT NOW WE’RE LOSING GROUND
THE TALE OF MAN PANDORA KNOWS
FOR SOMEONE HAD TO LOOK INSIDE
THE TALE IS BRIEF BUT AS IT GROWS
THERE IS NO PLACE FOR LIFE TO HIDE
THE TALE OF MAN IS BITTERSWEET
FOR ONE WITH TASTES FOR TRAGEDY
IT TELLS HOW MAN WILL MEET DEFEAT
HE WOULD NOT FACE REALITY
