And the meek shall inherit the earth We've taken care of everything The words you hear the songs you sing The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes It's one for all and all for one We work together common sons Never need to wonder how or why We are the priests, of the temples of syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the priests, of the temples of syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls Look around this world we made Equality our stock in trade Come and join the brotherhood of man Oh, what a nice contented world Let the banners be unfurled Hold the red star proudly high in hand We are the priests, of the temples of syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the priests, of the temples of syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound It's got wires that vibrate and give music What can this thing be that I found? See how it sings like a sad heart And joyously screams out its pain Sounds that build high like a mountain Or notes that fall gently like rain I can't wait to share this new wonder The people will all see its light Let them all make their own music The priests praise my name on this night I know it's most unusual To come before you so But I've found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know Listen to my music And hear what it can do There's something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you Yes, we know it's nothing new It's just a waste of time We have no need for ancient ways The world is doing fine Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesn't fit the plan No I can't believe you're saying These things just can't be true Our world could use this beauty Just think what we might do Listen to my music And hear what it can do There's something here that's as strong as life I know that it will reach you Don't annoy us further Oh, we have our work to do Just think about the average What use have they for you? Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesn't fit the plan I wandered home though the silent streets And fell into a fitful sleep Escape to realms beyond the night Dream, can't you show me the light? I stand atop a spiral stair An oracle confronts me there He leads me on light years away Through astral nights, galactic days I see the works of gifted hands That grace this strange and wondrous land I see the hand of man arise With hungry mind and open eyes They left the planet long ago The elder race still learn and grow Their power grows with purpose strong To claim the home where they belong Home, to tear the temples down Home, to change The sleep is still in my eyes The dream is still in my head I heave a sigh and sadly smile And lie a while in bed I wish that it might come to pass Not fade like all my dreams Just think of what my life might be In a world like I have seen I don't think I can carry on Carry on this cold and empty life Oh, no My spirits are low in the depths of despair My lifeblood spills over Attention all planets of the solar federation Attention all planets of the solar federation Attention all planets of the solar federation We have assumed control We have assumed control We have assumed control
