Lyrics
The Human Germ
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All the birds and trees and things they are a-losing
Everything, everywhere is vanishing
When I lay me down at last
My body tired, my time passed
We've eroded the soil from the ground
A rocky grave is where I'll be found, cause...
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
Look to the sky, look to the moon
Escape for some, but not for you
Doomed to wander a barren rock
If I was naive I'd call it bad luck, but...
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
Evolution, well that's passé
However we got to wherever we are today
Whether from space, whether from chimp
All excuses are looking quite limp, 'cause...
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
Whatever direction you may turn
You'll see my friend, the earth's been poisoned
By the human germ
