The Future of Man

(Music - M. Novak, D. Echnoz, Lyrics – M. Novak, C. Webster)

When Mother Nature was in control of life
Strengths and weaknesses were given at birth
The heard was culled by dealing with strife
Harmony of nature is the evolution of the earth
Then man discovered the code of all things living
The puzzle took shape and the landscape was given

CHORUS:

Is this the future of man to heal, repair, sustain
Is the future of man to change without range
Is the future of man to let humanity remain
Is the future of man to change natural to strange
Change Natural to Strange

We now control genes but the purpose divided
Some used to heal others to make odd things
Body changes are made the intentions misguided
Possibilities abound, a third arm or gills or wings
The perils of earth now removed at birth
Now man’s creation is the harmony of earth

CHORUS:

They mixed and matched with genes never ending
Creating creatures without features with blending
Control was lost ethics rejected
Corruption, money, power were selected
When it lived long enough to call a success
People screamed and rioted in excess.

CHORUS:

Even with command of the recipe it’s still Jekyll and Hyde
The good and bad still mixed together but the evil still thrives
The lifespan of man extended in time
Human perfection can now be mine
Nature’s diversity is now a just a term
In spite of control man did not learn

CHORUS:

Half CHORUS:
