Songtext von In Every Age

Mr. Andrews - In every age mankind attempts To fabricate great works At once magnificent And impossible... On desert sands, from mountains of stone A pyramid! From flying buttresses alone A wall of light! A chapel ceiling Screaming one man's ecstasy! One man's ecstsasy... Miracles them all! China's endless wall... Stonehenge, the Parthenon, the Duomo The aqueducts of Rome We did not attmept to make With mammoth blocks of stone A giant pyramid No, not a pyramid... Nor gothic walls that radiate with light... Our task was to dream upon And then create A floating city! Floating city... A human metropolis... A complete civilization! Sleek! And fast! At once a poem And the perfection Of physical engineering... At once a poem And the perfection Of physical engineering.
