Yeah, I really want to know about this"
You're really killing me, you know"
But sometimes it was faith, power or reason as the cornerstone
But they said, "How could it come to this?
Beautiful green fields and dreams and learn to measure the stars
Then there followed days of kings, empires and revolution
Is it like today? Ah, bang
Many years ago, he looked out through a glassless window
He says, "How could it come to this?
He comes face to face with God
We've living in a landslide
Yeah, we really want to know about this"
Is it like today? Ah, ah
Came to western isles and the Greek young men
Is it like today? Ah, ah
Blood just looks the same when you open the veins
How could it come to this?
Now he's out in space, hey, fixing all the problems
How could it come to this?
Ooh, aah, ooh
He said, "How could it come to this?
How could it come to this?
Is it like today? Ah, ah
But the furrowed brow has never left his face
Then there came a day, man packed up flew off from the planet
Then there came a day, moved out across the Mediterranean
Yeah, we really want to know about this"
And with their silver beards they laughed at the unknown of the universe
I'm really worried about my creation
But there was a worry in his heart
He said, "How could it come to this?
We're really worried about living
How did it comes to this?
They could sit and guess God's name
He went to the moon, to the moon
It isn't just today? Ah, ah
Is it like today? Ah, ah
I'm really worried about living
