Paul Heaton - Who Built The Pyramids? lyrics

Artist: Paul Heaton

album: N.K-Pop


Who built the Pyramids?
Who built Stonehenge?
Who built Mount Rushmore
And made them look friends?
Who put the walls up?
Who built the dam?
Divided the loved ones
From number one fan
Who filled the rivers? The oceans as well?
Who put the crack in the Liberty Bell?
It must have been angels, you have to agree
Made it imperfect, a little like me
Apart from the bridges that took us across
Every invention caused more of a loss
The ferry, the aeroplanes, the rocket to moon
Took us away from our lovers too soon
♪
Who built the railroad?
Who laid the track?
Sold them a single
So they ain't coming back
Swine to the abattoir
Horse to the cart
Freedom of movement
Has forced us apart
But just who designed the Centennial Light?
Well, over a century, through day and through night
While other lights faded, it's still shining through
Made to perfection, a little like you
Apart from the bridges that took us across
Every construction was more of a loss
The ferry, the aeroplanes, the rocket to moon
Took us away from our lovers too soon
Each brave new invention is greeted as such
But for love and affection, it never does much
Tried to divide us, so rarely to meet
Sent satellite signal right through our street
♪
Little old me, little old you
Who took our hearts and broke them in two?
