3. THARSIS

Once they told a strange legend
That our mother earth
Only was the egg of a mighty bird.
Living in the eternal cosmos
With eyes like glowing fire
Waiting for the day the egg would burst.

But no one thought this tale was true
That the day would come
When the hellish brood would blast the world.

But when the earth was plagued by
Earthquakes
The last doubts faded away
That the time of birth was finally near.

Their minds were caught by anxious feelings
The monstrous bird was coming
And all the time of birth was coming
And all the days and nights they watched
The sky.

Then one day a mighty figure
Was darkening the sunlight
The bird tharsis was hovering over the world.

A roaring sound is getting nearer
Tharsis' appearance moves the space.

Sunset comes its shadows moving
Irresistibly to the earth.

Shall this hellish brood
Destroy our world?

See this hellish brood
Tharsis tharsis.

The shadow overturn the nature
The mighty time has lost its worth.
Day and night associate
An endless night surrounds the world.

Shall this be the end?
Damn this hellish brood.

See the mighty bird
Tharsis tharsis.

The chief expert of atomic research:
Measurements have all just proves
The brood has nearly grown up
And sure is gonna hatch in seven days.

[Mankind:]
Damn the tale it's really true.

We're so afraid of dying.
Help us man, what are we gonna do?

[Chief expert:]
We can try a last big thing
And kill it by atomic fission,
So dangerous but our last chance to survive.

[Mankind:]
Shall we risk it, shall we try it?
Shall we live, shall we destroy it?
(Destroy it)
It's our last chance, it's our last chance.

Kill the beast, kill kill kill.

[Narrator:]
If they succeeded we don't know.
If they were able just to blow
The brood away and not our earth.

And if they did what would have done
The space bird tharsis whose little son
They killed as if he had been worth
Less than mankind?
