Unnatural Selection

We have to teach them all that we know their evolution moves far too slow expand their minds, reject compliance upgrade their knowledge, upload our science This revolution will lead to their demise we should not make the same mistake twice we're kept alive by artificial means but lost our souls to a world of machines Listen to the warning We need to teach them to fight disease they seem so helpless and need our expertise I see them dying all across the globe their greatest foe is but a small microbe This sudden change leads to overpopulation shifting the balance, destructive habitation killing all life, biological invasion consuming Earth by ruthless exploitation Can you see the fire in their eyes? Can you hear the anguish in their cries? Can you feel the beauty in their arts? Can you sense the love within their harts? I can taste the freedom we once had I can touch their pain when they feel sad I can smell the fragrance of the air I relive the times we used to share Don't want to live in a world that's dying I'd rather die in a world that's living We gave them feelings what did they sence? Shut out the world and put up a fence... We gave then science, what did they do? They build a bomb and they used it too... We gave them reason, what did they learn? Warmed up the planet and made it burn... We gave them art and what did they make? Nuclear weapens for their own sake... We gave them insight what did they see? Degrade the noble, enslave the free... We gave them wisdom what did they teach? We gave them language what did they say? They left the planet in disarray... We gave them dreams and what did they dream? A chain of guilt around our neck a planet straying in darkness can we save the lives we wrecked? I say we should find a way, I say stop this decay ad libs
