Paroles
Have you ever seen an atom
Little bits of everything floating by Take a good look at them
Collectively they compose all you see including your eye
Brilliant puzzle
A living Rubix Cube we think we can figure out and solve
But we’re just monkeys
Scratching our heads trying to open our ears
To a chord that just won’t seem to resolve
And we call it wisdom
Yes intellect in our truest sense of the word
You see for us security means a harmony
According to only what we have heard
And this along and nothing less
Will ease our heart and our mind
In the hopes that in feeling free we’ll reach paradise
On that hilltop we’re still trying to find
But the possibility exists no matter how scary it may seem
That paradise was once the world and it wasn’t just a dream
The earth was our heaven and we didn’t know there were rules for us to break
And maybe now we’ll find out too late what a clever hell we can make
Whoops
Whoops
In this corner
Weighing in at almost every weight imaginable…
Life, and all that surrounds it And in this corner
Weighing in at well, not really very much of anything;
A very sound and user friendly idea
On finally bringing that pesky mountain to Mohammed
Gentlemen at the sound of the harmonica solo you may come out fighting
Take a look at the horizon
Quiet and still
You know there used to be bison
Gentlemen you may fire at will
They say this land won’t go to waste
But you gotta wonder how
You know we’re chopping down the air we breathe
As fodder for the cow
That’s right so we can eat well
Yes and starve to death
And say there’s nothing we can do Because we really don’t want to do a goddamn thing
Look I’m shrugging and so are you
We can imagine the straightest of lines
But our fingers can’t control the pen
And it’s this frustration that yields relief
As we say we’re just mortal men
And that means we get to torture a chimpanze
And infect him with disease
Because he screams just like a human child
While we study his desperate pleas
But the possibility exists no matter how scary it may seem
That paradise was once the world and it wasn’t just a dream
The earth was our heaven and we didn’t know there were rules for us to break
And maybe now we’ll find out too late what a clever hell we can make
Whoops
Whoops
While we’re on the subject you know my conscience hurts
And it will not go away
So please concoct me some pill I can take
While I think of something clever to say
So I can look in my mirror made of polished glass
And find no need to cringe
And forget that sinking feeling I’m a dinosaur
Out on his drunken last binge
…from fossil to fossil
Dust to dust
I’ll see you all in the earthy crust
Whoops
Whoops
Traduction des paroles
Parce qu'il crie comme un enfant humain
Pendant que nous étudions ses appels désespérés
Mais la possibilité existe peu importe à quel point cela peut sembler effrayant
Ce paradis était autrefois le monde et ce n'était pas seulement un rêve
La terre était notre paradis et nous ne savions pas qu'il y avait des règles à enfreindre
Et peut être que maintenant nous découvrirons trop tard Quel enfer intelligent nous pouvons faire
Whoop
Whoop
Pendant qu'on est sur le sujet tu sais que ma conscience me fait mal
Et ça ne disparaîtra pas
Alors s'il te plaît concocte moi une pilule que je peux prendre
Alors que je pense à quelque chose d'intelligent à dire
Donc je peux regarder dans mon miroir en verre poli
Et ne trouvez pas besoin de grincer des dents
Et oublie ce sentiment de naufrage je suis un dinosaure
Sur sa dernière frénésie ivre
... de fossile en fossile
De la poussière à la poussière
Je vous verrai tous dans la croûte terrestre
Whoop
Whoop
