Eighth Day

In the beginning was a world

Man said: Let there be more light

Electric scenes a maze of beams

Neon brights to light our boring nights

On the second day he said: Let's have a gas

Hydrogen and CO are of the past

Let's make some germs, we'll poison the worms

Man will never be surpassed

And he said: Behold what I have done

I've made a better world for everyone

Nobody laughs, nobody cries

World without end, forever and ever

Amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)

On the third we get green and blue pill pie

On the fourth we send rockets to the sky

On the fifth metal beasts and submarines

On the sixth man prepares his final dream:

In our image, let's make robots for our slaves

Imagine all the time that we can save

Computers, machines, the silicon dream

Seventh he retired from the scene

And he said: Behold what I have done

I've made a better world for everyone

Nobody laughs, nobody cries

World without end, forever and ever

Amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)

On the eighth day machine just got upset

A problem man had not foreseen as yet

No time for flight, a blinding light

Then nothing but a void, forever night

He said: Behold what man has done

There’s not a world for anyone

Nobody laughs, nobody cries

World’s at an end, everyone has died

Forever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)
