歌詞
Hydrocarbon Man
You gave us all we wanted
Silver cities in the sand
So essential so exalted
You never made demands
You only got the fire started
Into the furnace that we fanned
Went all hope of ever stopping
How can we ever live otherwise?
Destiny will be our alibi
Hydrocarbon Man
We build on your foundation
We split the belly of the land
To drink of your creation
From the ground on which we stand
To the skies above the station
An immaculate plan
Dripping with blood and oil
Blood and oil
We've been drinking from the fountain you filled
With blood and oil
We've been walking up the mountain you built
With blood and oil
We've been living in the house that you built
With blood and oil
Hydrocarbon Man
You drive the hardest bargain
Do we callous our soft hands
Or burn the future gardens
Hydrocarbon Man
You had us all believe
The blood of the Earth
Was blood of war and blood of peace
How can we ever live otherwise?
Destiny will be our alibi
But we're dripping
With blood and oil
Blood and oil
We've been drinking from the fountain you filled
With blood and oil
We've been walking up the mountain you built
With blood and oil
We've been living in the house that you built
With blood and oil
