Intro
G# D#/G C#
[Refrain]
G# D#/G C#
The brain tends to divide between what's yours and what is mine
G# D#/G C#
And what it believes to be wrong and right
G# D#/G C#
The brain does not seem to know that we all share the same home
G# D#/G C#
And existence is a fact it's not a right
[Chorus]
G# D#/G Cm
The land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of us
A# G# D#/G D#
And I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and borders
Cm C#
And obsessive thinking, of proving our individuality
[Verse 1]
G# D# Fm Cm
So what can you do when your fellow man, criminalizes your plan
C# G#
For getting by, and the presence of your body means you've acted
C# D#
Irresponsibly, and you've failed to be born before all the world was taken
[Verse 2]
G# D# Fm Cm C#
And you got nowhere to call home, on a globe, twenty-two thousand miles around
G# C#
And gravity breeds illegality cause it'll always bring you down
D#
On somebody else's piece of ground
[Refrain]
G# D#/G C#
The brain seems to think with enough manipulation
G# D#/G C#
The brain could be master of the sea, the land, the sky
G# D#/G C#
The poor little brain could not seem to realize
G# D#/G C#
That no measure of intelligence could ever improve upon perfection
[Chorus]
G# D#/G C
The land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of us
A# G# D#/G D#
And I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and borders
C C#
And obsessive thinking, of proving our individuality
[Verse 4]
G# D#
We can put a man on the moon, but that won't save us
Fm Cm
When the ground's too poisoned and there ain't water enough left
C# G#
To grow our food and liposuction and transplanted hair will keep us sexy
C# D#
As we slowly die from poison in the air we breathe
[Verse 5]
G# D# Fm
We can build a town in half a day, blow each other all away
Cm C#
Go home latter on that day, watch it all on the evening news
G# C#
Despite our age of information, It won't help us without wisdom
D#
And all our ingenuity has only brought us to the brink of annihilation
G# Fm C#
[Outro]
G# Fm C#
Technology cannot replace responsibility
G# Fm C#
And fifty-five don't justify our own poisoning
G# Fm C#
And progress seems like backwards lies cause we all started off with paradise
G# Fm C#
So leave your mark on our world by leaving no mark at all
G# Fm C#
Maybe it's security
G# Fm C#
Maybe it's simple amibition
G# Fm C#
Maybe it's insanity
G# Fm C# D# G#
Maybe it's just good old tradition
