| 作词 : Ramsey, Walkyier | |
| A species in its infancy--a living idiosyncrasy, | |
| This 'naked ape' believes itself divine. | |
| Assured of its supremacy--it dreams of immortality, | |
| The first words that it speaks--"This world is mine." | |
| But the time has come for us to realise, | |
| That the animal instincts we deeply despise-- | |
| Are far more civilised than humanity. | |
| Mankind has lived to curse the day it climbed down from the trees, | |
| But still we keep our heads held high whilst crawling on our knees. | |
| I hope I never live to see the 'perfect' world you crave, | |
| Where ambition is the burden we shall carry to our graves. | |
| We think that we are so superior--for in | |
| God's image we were made, | |
| All other life we deem inferior--there to exploit, kill or enslave | |
| No amount of remonstration could ever show a mind so small that it is not 'the be and end all.' | |
| Into the future we race driven on by our greed, | |
| Like rats in a maze we will never be free. | |
| Science is the 'new-religion'--scaples slash dissecting truth and reason, | |
| Behind locked doors where no-one sees. | |
| Down evolution's one way street mankind pursues his dream, | |
| Of a race conceived in test tubes with the same designer genes, | |
| But like a child who tries to run before it learns to crawl-- he'll go crying to his ' | |
| Mother' when he sees the cradle fall. | |
| I am human-- | |
| I was made to be the ultimate machine, | |
| With the power at my fingertips to realise my dream. | |
| Homo-sapiens--the 'master-race,' | |
| Nature's pride and joy, | |
| Taking all the world will give me--what it won't | |
| I shall destroy. | |
| In our hearts we yearn to be immortal--conquer all sickness and disease, | |
| Create a world where even death's not fatal--then we can shape our destinies. | |
| A populace of plastic people live genetically pre-programmed lives--and no-one laughs and no-one cries. | |
| Blinded by science the masses are duped and deceived, | |
| By the faces that smile from their colour | |
| T.V.s. They'll steal your dreams--remove them surgically (but leave you scars so deep and lasting), | |
| God is dead man has surpassed him. | |
| Like children in our playground--we contrive such foolish games, | |
| But fail to see the consequence of suicidal aims. | |
| No matter how we bend the rules there's no way we can win, | |
| Not even pleading | |
| Ignorance will vindicate our sins. | |
| I am human-- | |
| I was made to be the ultimate machine, | |
| With the power at my fingertips to realise my dream. | |
| Homo-sapiens--the 'master-race,' | |
| Nature's pride and joy, | |
| Taking all the world will give me--what it won't | |
| I shall destroy. | |
| Mankind a babe-in-arms, | |
| Believes he's come of age-- | |
| And reaches for the stars, | |
| With one foot in the grave. | |
| I am human-- | |
| I was made to be the ultimate machine, | |
| I am human-- | |
| I have the power to realise my dream. | |
| I am human--an automaton--a mindless 'technoslave,' | |
| I am human-- | |
| I am servant to the monsters | |
| I have made. |
