Any system you contrive without us
will be brought down
We warned you before
and nothing that you built has stood
Hear it as you lean over your blueprint
Hear it once again:
Any system you contrive without us
will be brought down.
You have your drugs
You have your guns
You have your Pyramids
your Pentagons
With all your grass and bullets
you cannot hunt us any more
All that we disclose of ourselves forever
is this warning
Nothing that you built has stood
Any system you contrive without us
will be brought down.
-"The Energy of Slaves," Leonard Cohen, 1972
