You can separate man from government, or organised religion but you can never fix the self-destructive tendencies of mankind.
Ryan and Comstock were never going to succeed.
lyrics
VERSE:
Welcome to Rapture, where artists can thrive,
Where science trumps morals, where we came to die
Welcome to Rapture, oh Ryan he lied
His "free" market crumbled, our brains all got fried
PRE CHORUS:
Nothing has changed from the surface
Nothing has changed from the surface
The rich just get richer the poor just get poorer
Did you not think we would notice?
VERSE 2:
Welcome to Rapture, the jewel of the sea
Where plasmids and ADAM control all with Eve
PRE CHORUS 2:
Bringing things in from the surface
Bringing things in from the surface
Fontaine and his men, they smuggle them in
Creating a world like a circus
CHORUS:
Ring around a Rosie, a plasmid for a trophy
A pistol, a pistol, we all fall down
Ring around a Rosie, a place where no one knows me
So blissful, so blissful, we all will drown
Excuse the sour grapes, I'm just drinking the house wine
At a masquerade ball, like it's 1959!
BRIDGE:
Little sisters, walking the streets
Shadowed by splicers, who live in their need
Enter Big Daddy, designed to protect her
Conditioned by science, forget who they once were
