The Great Snows came when Man was slight!

The wild winds stung and Life was hard!

But we learned of clothes and spears and FIRE!!

When the Warm Times came, we'd found the Lord!!!

Then came the Times of the Holocausts!

We ripped First World with the Hell of Wars!

But a few still saw the Vision grow:
We learned to journey to the STARS!

When our first SUN died we felt great fright.

But we found other Stars give HEAT and LIGHT!

Then the Black Holes came and they cost us dear.

We lost our Worlds,
But we're still here!

Now the Universe is night.

The experts say we won't survive!!

For the Stars are cold and they give no light.

Poppy ****!!

There are more ways than one to survive!
  
If it hadn't been for the Snows
And the Nuclear Wars
And the times of Hell with the DYING STARS!

If God hadn't driven us to the brink;

We'd have never learned to think!
