09 The Supermen - The Man Who Sold The World [Remaster] (1970)
When all the world was very young And mountain magic heavy hung The supermen would walk in file Guardians of a loveless isle And gloomy browed with super fear their tragic endless lives Heaves nor sighs in solemn, perverse serenity wondrous beings chained to life
Strange games they would play then No death for the perfect men Life rolls into one for them So softly a super god cries
Where all were minds in uni-thought Power is weird by mystics taught No pain, no joy, no power too great Colossal strength to grasp a fate Where sad-eyed mermen tossed in slumbers Nightmare dreams no mortal mind could hold A man would tear his brother's flesh, a chance to die To turn to mold
Far out in the red-sky Far out from the sad eyes Strange, mad celebration So softly a super god cries
