Brutal Planet

We're spinning round on this ball of hate There's no parole, there's no great escape We're sentenced here until the end of days And then my brother, there's a price to pay We're only human, we were born to die Without the benefit of reason why We live for pleasure, to be satisfied And then my brother, no place to hide Why don't you, come down to It's such a brutal planet It's such a living hell Why don't you, come down to This world is such perfection It's just like paradise A truly grand creation From up here it looks so nice It's such a brutal planet It's such a living hell It was a holy garden That's right where Adam fell It's where the bite was taken It's where we learned to sin It's where we first were naked This is where your death begins We took advice from that deceiving snake He said, "Don't worry it's a piece of cake" And sent us swimming in a burning lake Now we're abandoned there for heaven's sake Why don't you, come down to It's such a brutal planet It's such a living hell Why don't you, come down to This world is such perfection It's just like paradise A truly grand creation From up here it looks so nice Here's where we keep the armies Here's where we write their names Here's where the money god is And here's our hall of shame Here's where we keep the hungry Here's where we cheat the poor Here's where we beat the children This is where we pay the whore Why don't you, come down to It's such a brutal planet It's such a living hell Why don't you, come down to This world is such perfection It's just like paradise A truly grand creation From up here it looks so fine Right here we stoned the prophets Made idols out of mud Right here we fed the lions Christian flesh and Christian blood Over there is where we hung him Upon an ugly cross Right here we filled the ovens Right here the holocaust
