Thumbs up ~~~~~ Thumbs up to the primitive tree man his war with our fathers was treason But our minds can't perceive that his deeds were our roots All his knots we untied to gain freedom With the heart of an eagle we took to the sky The world wasn't flat and soon we could fly We strip mine our farmlands and level our forests We turn a great mountain to rubble before us Our standard of living is that of a glutton We'll defend it from all with the touch of a button Our doctors research us where pride shouldn't be Regardless of sex they'll turn you into me To the stars in the heavens our sights we have set And the faster we leave the much farther we'll get Still clinging to trees we forgot to extract Our ancestors thumbs up Cheer " Don't hurry back !!!

Thanks everyone ... it's not that often that I write something serious ... but when I do you'll end up at a loss for words from the shock of the idea  Rex }<{{{{o> |
