Goodbye o creature of folly    The sun still sheds light    On your towers    Of steel and glass       And they will bear silent witness    To the futility of your achievements    And the beasts will roam your streets    Feasting on your cooling flesh       Never again will your like be seen    Such arrogance and folly    The worm has conquered    And you return to dust       Millennia of evolution    Science and religion    Toil and suffering    Still you never learn       Now it is over    And how futile it all was    The dreams on mankind    Rotting away       And thus we all fade    Weep not for your destiny    No-one will be left to mourn    3000 AD
