Proud Earthlings

from Owner Of Cosmos (LP) by Fonohead

lyrics

You proudly call yourselves Earthlings.
You seem to me to be the creatures with a very weird way of thinking. You tend to think that you are incredibly clever. But how come that being so clever you don't even see that the vision of the future you build is getting darker every day?
You hope to find a better life in the places you will never be able to reach. You keep searching and groundlessly reckon that you will be welcome anywhere in the Universe. But reality is – nobody is waiting for you out there. Nobody needs you. Nobody even wants to know you. You cannot be trusted because you have no idea how to build a good future. And your future looks frightening.
You are selfish, two-faced, arrogant and self-destructive. And everything you do and create leads you to your extinction.

You proudly call yourselves Earthlings.
You like to fantasise how you would conquer far galaxies and civilisations. You need more power, more wealth, more possession, more democracy. You are so inspired by your own greed.
It's not too late yet to stop staring at the skies and take a look at what's going on under your feet. Look at the consequences of your existence. You will see the ground cracking and feel its trembling.
Your planet is exhausted. Your planet is disfigured, crippled, soiled, robbed and raped by you – proud Earthlings.
And considering what you have done and keep on doing I can easily foretell your destination. But I will not explain. I will let you guess. You are incredibly clever. Aren't you?
