As It Were Lyrics

As It Were lyrics

At the dawn of man they fell out of the trees. Down on the ground they crawled
on their knees. Hair on their bodies, no clothes on their backs. Men stood up
to begin the attack. Progress was made and Rome was begun. Fed the Christians
to the lions just for fun. It burned to the ground while they fiddled around
and down toppled towers that towered downtown. Now there's skyscrapers three
mile high. Skyscrapers to the sky and people ask why? And you toot toots in
three piece suits. And booming bombs to blow our bleeding brains to bits to
boot. Wake up and face the facts. There is no turning back. The sands of time
just grind along. They slip through our fingers like ideas for songs.
