Century Of Gold Lyrics

We're the highest species

So, we own the world

When I grew up

That was all that I heard

So advanced and so untouchable

We got the right technique

To get all what we seek

We are meant to lead

We have the right to take

All we need

Cause nothing beats great humanity

Sip your tea of gold

Maybe you will be drawn down too

Oh, hot tea

Blurs your perception of the truth

Sip your tea of gold

Before it's no longer afternoon

Go hide away

Who cares about what you have done

You're so self-absorbed

That you still think that you have won

Now just behold

Only money controls the world

Century of gold

If you look closer

You can see the cracked facade

Everything you tell sounds too odd

We're not as brilliant

As you portray us

Climate change and war

We still want all and more

The suffering you ignore

Your values lie straight on the floor

To being fair you have shut the door

Sip your tea of gold

Maybe you will be drawn down too

Oh, hot tea

Blurs your perception of the truth

Sip your tea of gold

Before it's no longer afternoon

Go hide away

Who cares about what you have done

You're so self-absorbed

That you still think that you have won

Now just behold

Only money controls the world

Century of gold

Sip your tea

Sip your tea of gold

But beware that it does not

Burn your throat

Sip your hot gold

When the last river dried

The last tree felled

The last animal is shot to death

You will realize

That you cannot eat gold

In your century of gold

No, you cannot eat gold

In your century of gold

Century of gold
