Differently

If on this planet The secret of life had never been born If evolution hadn't yielded humanity If the Trojans had refused to accept The gift of Greeks And Brutus hadn't joined the conspiracy To kill Caesar If Pilate hadn't condemned Christ And Henry the Eighth wasn't taken with Ann Boleyn If the Church hadn't burned Giordano Bruno And the sword of Laertes wasn't poisoned If Columbus hadn't searched for India in the west And de Grouchy's army wasn't late at Waterloo If Hitler never had his crazy ideas And communism had never become a suicidal monster If men hadn't destroyed the planet on which they live And nations were never divided By religion, ethnicity and money If you hadn't said "yes" to me On that blessed early day All in this world would have changed And someone else Different from me Would be singing this song Differently
