lyrics

Fifty thousand years ago
Mankind clambered through the snow
Fifty thousand years ago
Mankind’s hands began to grow

Some will speak and some will say
Mankind’s hands are made of clay
Some will speak and some will say
Mankind will steal all.. The clay.... (Clang! clang!)


Fifty thousand years ago
Mankind clambered through the snow
Fifty thousand years ago
Mankind’s hands began to grow

Grabbed himself two fist of snow..
Mankind’s eyes began.. to glow......
