Verse: 1 In the early days When you lived in caves You hardly ever met a stranger But if you did it could mean danger You chewed on your bones When you were throwing stones And you used your club for Hunting you were a troglodyte And you said this land was your land And never will be their land How long will your aggression stand? In a caveman’s land Verse: 2 Now that was long ago But evolution is slow Though you got Globalization And access to information Even with the Internet you Find the logic is hard to get When your mindset is all Jurassic you’re still a troglodyte And you said this land was your land And never will be their land How long will your aggression stand? In a caveman’s land You said this land is your land And never will be their land What’s so hard to understand? It’s still a caveman’s land Bridge   Wonder how it’s down there In your hole Where it’s darkness all the time Building up these images of ghosts outside   Must be scary to play that roll A tricky hill to climb that is Gonna make you lose control Yeah the demons of your soul Will make you fall back into your hole               Verse: 3 Is it too complex or Can you tell what’s next? After years and years of sinking Can you switch your way of thinking? Will your kids be lame Or will they change the game Will they act a little wiser And not be troglodytes And say this land is your land And never just be my land Yeah will they take a stand Against the caveman’s land And say this land is your land And never just be my land Who will get the upper hand In this caveman’s land And you said this land was your land And never will be their land How long will your aggression stand? In a caveman’s land You said this land is your land And never will be their land What’s so hard to understand? It’s still a caveman’s land Outro   In the early days It was long ago But the evolution is slow Is it too complex or Can you tell what’s next? Will your kids be lame Or will they change the game

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque les luttes et les conflits qui existent depuis les temps anciens, lorsqu'il était essentiel de défendre son territoire et de se méfier de l'autre. Elle soulève des questions sur l'évolution de l'humanité : malgré des progrès comme la mondialisation et l'accès à l'information, certains continuent de se comporter de manière archaïque, comme des troglodytes. Le texte interroge notre capacité à changer nos mentalités pour créer un monde plus inclusif pour les générations futures, tout en dénonçant la peur et l’agressivité persistantes qui isolent les individus. L'idée centrale est de se demander jusqu'à quand cette attitude de possessivité et de méfiance envers les autres perdurera.
