The Last Man
Shun the destroyer - though he is also creator
He would have us return to the days of old
Formerly all of the world was mad
Now there are no shepherds, just sheep in one herd
We have found happiness
Absence of pain
We are all equal
We're all the same
Propagate ignorance
No use to question this
No respect for your self worth
State is the god on earth
Rich and poor don't exist
No use for work ethic
Moderate your passions
Pleasure is still a sin
None shall strive for excellence
Wretched in their contentment
All live long and all live well
Is this utopia or is it hell?
One who seeks, one who strives
Lives outcast, and then he dies
Black sheep torn from the herd
For your mind you shall burn
Neighbor love gives way to stranger hate
Kill them off if they don't see it your way
You love all humanity? That is a lie
For the good of five, a sixth must die
We have found happiness
Absence of pain
We are all equal
We are all the same
Propagate ignorance
No use to question this
No respect for your self worth
State is the god on earth
Rich and poor don't exist
No use for work ethic
Moderate your passions
Pleasure is still a sin
None shall strive for excellence
Wretched in their contentment
All live long and all live well
Is this utopia or is it hell?
One who seeks, one who strives
Lives outcast, and then he dies
Black sheep torn from the herd
For your mind you shall burn
He would have us return to the days of old
Formerly all of the world was mad
Now there are no shepherds, just sheep in one herd
We have found happiness
Absence of pain
We are all equal
We're all the same
Propagate ignorance
No use to question this
No respect for your self worth
State is the god on earth
Rich and poor don't exist
No use for work ethic
Moderate your passions
Pleasure is still a sin
None shall strive for excellence
Wretched in their contentment
All live long and all live well
Is this utopia or is it hell?
One who seeks, one who strives
Lives outcast, and then he dies
Black sheep torn from the herd
For your mind you shall burn
Neighbor love gives way to stranger hate
Kill them off if they don't see it your way
You love all humanity? That is a lie
For the good of five, a sixth must die
We have found happiness
Absence of pain
We are all equal
We are all the same
Propagate ignorance
No use to question this
No respect for your self worth
State is the god on earth
Rich and poor don't exist
No use for work ethic
Moderate your passions
Pleasure is still a sin
None shall strive for excellence
Wretched in their contentment
All live long and all live well
Is this utopia or is it hell?
One who seeks, one who strives
Lives outcast, and then he dies
Black sheep torn from the herd
For your mind you shall burn
