paroles de chanson Is This Art? - Live at Manchester Academy, 4/10/93 - Levellers

Levellers
Levellers
Is This Art?
They took me to the battlefield
Saw the mushroom clouds
Said, "I Can see the colours
Even when my head is bowed."
They showed me the destruction
The slaughter a la carte
Isn′t nature wonderful
But is this art?

They took me to the hospital
And pulled aside the sheet
Said, "look at that pulsating
Just listen to the beat."
Showed me the incision
Then took away my heart
Isn't nature wonderful, but is this art?

They took me to the scientist
Opened up a phial
Said, "This is only chickenpox
And rhino bile."
Showed me what it did to mice
And this is just the start
Isn′t nature wonderful
But is this art?

Took me to the tenemenet
Kicked down the door
Said "Have you seen the copulation
Practiced by the poor?"
We select the ones to breed
Then we reject the part
Isn't nature wonderful
But is this art?
