The Intelligent Breed
THE INTELLIGENT BREED
We think we are the Intelligent Breed
While upon our own kind we do feed
Our hearts, our souls, our brilliant minds
Are the real strengths of human kind
Not the power of weapons and evil
Muggings and shootings and constant upheaval
Destruction and violence against our own
These are the kinds of seeds we've sown
We destroy the very things we need
With hate and violence, war and greed
Will we ever see the light
Of our planet's awful plight
Things are not as they should be
If we are truly the Intelligent Breed.
