Angels on the sideline,
Puzzled and amused.
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now you're all confused.

Don't these talking monkeys know that
Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly old monkeys,
Where there's one you're bound to divide it

Right in two

Angels on the sideline,
Baffled and confused.
Father blessed them all with reason.
And this is what they choose.
(and this is what they choose)

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs,
They forge a blade,
And when there's one they're bound to divide it,

Right in two.
Right in two.

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs,
They make a club
And beat their brother..down.
How they survived so misguided is a mystery.
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability
to lift an eye to heaven conscious of his fleeting time here

Gotta divide it all right in two (x4)

They fight, till they die
Over earth, over sky
They fight, Over life,
over brawn, over air And light,
over love, over sun. Over blood
They fight, or they die, all for what? for our rizing!

Angels on the sideline again
Been to long with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end

Gotta divide it all right in two (x3)
Right in two

Right in two...

These lyrics really got to me. Unlike some songs they actually have a meaning; what are we doing to ourselves; what are we securing for our descendants if not a penultimate, horrific fate?

This song says a lot about our race, in my opinion.

This song is set from the Point of View of Arch Angel Gabriel by the way, who supposedly had a profound hatred with God for giving the humans what they have... i.e. 'Silly Monkey'.
