Almost every line in this song asks a question. And the answer is 'Fragile creatures on a fragile world." Are we smart enough to outsmart ourselves? Only time will tell. This is one of my favorite productions. There's a lot going on here as it builds over the course of the song.

Endangered Species


Who is the hunter?
Who is the prey?
Who is the master?
Who is the slave?

Fragile creatures on a fragile world

How did we blunder?
Who is to blame?
Dazzled by the wonder
Moth to the flame

Fragile creatures on a fragile world

Are we smart enough to outsmart ourselves
And rise up and face our fear?
Of the nightmare looming when we’re only human
And illusions are so dear

Fragile creatures on a fragile world

Who knows the hunger?
Who feels the need?
Who hoards the plunder?
Driven by greed

Fragile creatures on a fragile world
