angels on the sideline
puzzled and amused
why did Father give these humans free will?
now they're all confused

don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around?
playing in this holy garden, silly old monkeys
well there's one who's bound to divide it
right in two

angels on the sideline
baffled and confused
father blessed them all with reason
and this is what they choose
monkey killing monkey killing monkey
over pieces of the ground

silly monkeys given thumbs
they forge a blade
and then theres one bound to divide it
right in two
right in two

monkey killing monkey killing monkey
over pieces of the ground
silly monkeys give them thumbs
they make a club
and beat their brother down
how they survive so misguided is a mystery
repugnant, dismal creature who would squander
the ability to live, to die, and have a conscience

brothers sleep inside here

cut it all right in two
cut it all right in two
cut it all right in two
cut it all right in two

fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
fight over life, over blood, over air
fight over love, over sun, over another
fight each other, over

angels on the sideline again
been so long with patience and reason
angels on the sideline again
wondering when this tug of war will end

cut it all right in two
cut it all right in two
cut it all right in two
right in two
right in two
