In the beginning was a world
Man said: Let there be more light
Electric scenes and laser beams
Neon brights to light our boring nights

On the second day he said: Let's have a gas
Hydrogen and CO are of the past
Let's make some germs, we'll poison the worms
Man will never be surpassed

And he said: Behold what I have done
I've made a better world for everyone
Nobody laughs, nobody cries
World without end, forever and ever
Amen, amen, amen

On the third we get green and blue pill pie
On the fourth we send rockets to the sky
On the fifth metal beasts and submarines
On the sixth man prepares his final dream:

In our image, let's make robots for our slaves
Imagine all the time that we can save
Computers, machines, the silicon dream
Seventh he retired from the scene

And he said: Behold what I have done
I've made a better world for everyone
Nobody laughs, nobody cries
World without end, forever and ever
Amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)

On the eighth day machine just got upset
A problem man had not foreseen as yet
No time for flight, a blinding light
Then nothing but a void, forever night

He said: Behold what man has done
There's not a world for anyone
Nobody laughs, nobody cries
World's at an end, everyone has died
Forever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)

He said: Behold what man has done
There's not a world for anyone
Nobody laughes, nobody cries
World's at an end, everyone has died
Forever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)

  • The beginnings of the Terminator story was Hazel O'Connor's idea!

  • Very hard-hitting video. Well done.

  • This has to be one of the best singles from 1981.

  • @JacquesZupp you are officially more 80s than anyone! :-)

  • Like your style. Unfortunately, what you portrayed in your video is more than likely to happen than not. The world's mad. What have we become?

  • @frisbee20 I've had this, think it's connection speed? or other stuff running on your computer slowing it down...Sometimes opening it to full screen before playing works, it like "tricks" it!

  • Why is it when I expand to full screen - the video turns completly black , BUT has sound. Any ideas????

  • @jqlad Do these lyrics feature in an extended version of the song?

  • Awesome song.

  • Everyone cried everyone laughed hallelujah to our wonderful Sax forever Allone, allone, allone. xxxx
