Alastair Shuttleworth - Espontaneo Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stan discovered how to travel in time
Much to the joy of his missionary peers
"Finally this is my chance," he declares
"To bring about genuine, positive change
To benefit my troubled, beloved human race?
His aim was to meet early man
In order to quicken our social advance
Circumventing horrors of humanity's past

[Verse 2]
But of course what happened was this
Finding these people in awe and afraid
He exploited his influence
In order to fuck every woman in the cave
Make every primitive man his slave
Committing acts cruel, appalling and depraved
Before returning to the present day to find little had changed
Now he lashes out when the subject is raised

[Chorus]
"Why do you rebuke and chastise me?
I, who brought you all into being!"
That's the irony of it of course
Which puts him and his fellows in a rage
But *pas moi,* not me
Knowing that my neighbours are inferior to me
Smart as a smart new coat
Good-looking as a good-looking thing
And kind to all my fellow beings
So I agree to help him to die
Pulling a knife from my coat
When suddenly some other fellow
Leaps in the way with a knife of their own
I cry, "stop the *espontáneo*"
Dr Coehn drags them from the room
But the atmosphere is truly soured
So I re-sheath my weapon, unused
[Verse 3]
Abandoning his philanthropic work
Now seeing these evils in humanity interred
Stan aimlessly wanders the Wasteland
As a pariah universally despised
Dr Coehn, monitoring Stan
Says "This has all gone close enough to plan
And so we move on to phase two"
Nobody's travelled in time since then
