The Beekeeper |
Here comes the beekeeper |
With her pitcher full of smoke |
She’ll put us all to sleep |
I hope it’s dreamless and it’s deep |
Sweet Prometheus, come home |
They took away our fire |
And all that this scarcity promotes |
Is desperate men and tyrants |
What fine design |
What hands |
What minds |
The envy of Eden |
Our tools and our reason |
It’s clear in the animals' eyes |
We stand |
Upright |
Build fires |
At night |
Made on the sixth day |
To rest on the seventh |
And now we just try to survive |
The surgeon and farmer meet |
And each greets the other with a bow |
They’re kindred instruments, you know |
The scalpel and the plow |
In the shadow of the mountain |
We work when work abounds |
And we wear out all our prayers |
When the work runs out |
What fine design |
What hands |
What minds |
The envy of Eden |
Our tools and our reason |
It’s clear in the animals' eyes |
We stand |
Upright |
Build fires |
At night |
Made on the sixth day |
To rest on the seventh |
And now we just try to survive |
