Angels on the sideline
Puzzled and amused
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they're all confused

Don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys
Where there's one, they're bound to divide it, right in two

Angels on the sideline
Baffled and confused
Father blessed them all with reason
And this is what they choose?

Monkey killing monkey, killing monkey, over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys, given thumbs, they forge a blade
And where there's one, they're bound to divide it, right in two
Right in two

Monkey killing monkey, killing monkey, over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys, given thumbs, they make a club to beat their brother down
How they survive so misguided is a mystery
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability
To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here

Gotta divide it all right in two
Gotta divide it all right in two
Gotta divide it all right in two
Gotta divide it all right in two

They fight till they die over sun, over sky
They fight till they die over sea, over air
They fight till they die over blood, over love
They fight till they die over words, polarizing

Angels on the sideline, again
Benched along with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline, again
Wondering where this tug of war will end

Gotta divide it all right in two
Gotta divide it all right in two
Gotta divide it all right in two
Right in two
Right in two
