But I shut the window
Come closer, kid, listen up, kiddo
I'm gonna tell you the story of humankind
At first there was nothing, at first it was fine
Nature moved forward, there was no path
Then man showed up in his big old boots
Kicks in the face to get some respect
The one-way roads he started laying down
The arrows in the plain started to multiply
And every element ended up under control
In no time at all, the story was wrapped up
We won't be turning back anytime soon
We even started polluting the deserts
And that's no small thing to say
You're not gonna die laughing
And that's no small thing to say
In a few years we'll have eaten the leaf
And your grandkids will only have one eye
Right in the middle of their forehead, they'll ask you
Why you've got two, you'll look like a d*ck
They'll say, How could you let that happen
You can defend yourself, explain in a whisper
It's not my fault, it's the elders'
But there'll be nobody left to wash your hands
So there you have it, kid, the story of humankind
It's not pretty, pretty, and I don't know the end
You weren't born in a cabbage but rather in a hole
That we fill every day like a manure pit
And we've grown up well, we're not kids anymore
What's changed? Not much, I guess
Straight into the wall, we keep rushing
And the only difference now is that we know it
I blame you who were there before us
For not doing much to avoid the hole
We look for excuses when the earth is in sorrow
But digging our grave we might find some oil
I put on a mask to go to the sea
I slip on a VR headset to get some air
We barrel into the ditch with giant strides
They say the grass is greener on the screens
A boomerang in the face like a tidal wave
The old mistakes, the packaging the wind brings back to us
It's too late when the vise tightens
If that's no small thing to say, then what's it to do it
For the young ones I think I'm already old
In the end, who'll stay standing
We hope the next generation'll do better
But the one before, is it the same as us
It's tomorrow that everything gets worse
You're not gonna die laughing
I didn't get the joke
And that's no small thing to say
But I shut the window
And that's no small thing to say
You're not gonna die laughing
Maybe I'll understand
That it's no small thing to say
It's tomorrow that everything gets worse
You're not gonna die laughing
I didn't get the joke
And that's no small thing to say
But I shut the window
Maybe I'll understand
