lyrics

HUMAN ZOO

The sky is falling yet we choose to ignore
They’re preaching us religion and delivering war
Oh oh, delivering war

Thirty-seven dead in Tunisian sand
Is that the price we have to pay for your holy land
No no, for your holy land

CHORUS

You know we better wake up before it’s too late
We can’t heal wounds with nothing but hate
The help we need won’t come from above
Unless we find a way to bomb ‘em with love

You know they’re all lying yet we choose to believe
One hundred thousand dying
Just when do we grieve
Oh no, when do we grieve

CHORUS

The violence isn’t working
Maybe try something new
So why’d we let the monkeys run this human zoo
Oh run this human zoo

CHORUS
