Puck civilization

Whatever happened to moonlight plays?

Man relied on cultivation

Daily bread was assured, we were content.

 

No schools

No struggle for dominance

It was an ecosystem

No chaos.

 

You are born

You play and help out on the farm

You of age, you pick a girl, clear a portion and start a life

Your destiny really lay in your palms.

 

They come with organization

They bully us into this life

This madness, where only thieves survive

They create money, the root of all evil, designer shoes and clothes, exotic cars all follow.

 

They make us throw away our gods

They give us their Christianity

And we become worse sinners

Our sacred virginity loses its dignity, porn is everywhere.

 

We respected elders

Now elders must bow to us

We feared the thunder and would not steal

Now if you don’t steal you’d be stolen.

 

We had oral tradition

Parents thought children how to act

Controlled their company, led them to kingship

Now the internet trains the child.

 

They’ve polluted our world

They’ve killed most of our friends, our animals in danger of extinction

Sapped everything they can find in our grounds

They’ve created viruses, caused mutations with nuclear power.

 

Abnormal beings rise up

Homosexuals are encouraged

Men now ‘know’ animals in the biblical way

And I don’t think they are done yet.

 

Our ozone layer is finished

The sun would burn us all

They have destroyed our land

Our home has become a prison.
