Same Old Story

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Born to open forMankind nature's doorA life known by a fewAnd those who knew that sharedTheir knowledge fewer caredAbout what plants could doFor most felt it was mad to conceiveThat plants thought, felt, and moved quite like weBut with instruments Bose would deviseWould take Science itself by a surprise, soOn we go to where who knowsTo a place where there's still non-believersWhat will it take for heaven sakesFor those who find what's real too hard to believe inIt's that same old story again.Born of slaves who diedToo soon to realizeThe need his life would beSelflessy he gaveHis wisdom to a wayWhere first no minds would seeHe said if farm land was to be richWe must plant crops to replenish itBut it took him persuasion and testsTo convince them Canver's way was best, soOn we go to where who knowsTo a place where there's still non-believersWhat will it take for heaven sakesFor those who find what's real too hard to believe inIt's that same old story again.
