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?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly old monkeys,
Where there's one you're 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,
The forge a blade,
And brothers wonder 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 is the creature
Who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven
Conscious of this fleeting time here

Cutting it all right in two
Cutting it all right in two
Cutting it all right in two
Cutting it all right in two

Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
Fight over lie, over blood, over anything
Fight over love, over sun, over nothing
Fight till they die (not the whole time)
Over what? For their ending (greed)

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

Cutting it all right in two
Cutting it all right in two
Cutting it all right in two
Right in two
Right in two
