QUEST FOR FIRE
In a time when
dinosaurs walked the earth
When the land
was swamp and caves were home
In an age when
prize possession was fire
To search for
landscapes men would roam.
Then the tribes
they came to steal their fire
And the wolves
they howled into the night
As they fought
a vicious angry battle
to save the
power of warmth and light.
Drawn by quest
for fire
They searched
all through the land
Drawn by quest
for fire
Discovery of
man.
And they thought
that when the embers died away
That the flame
of life had burnt and died
Didn't know
the sparks that made the fire
Were made by
rubbing stick and stone.
So they ploughed
through the forest and swamps of danger
And they fought
the cannibal tribes and beasts
In the search
to find another fire
To regain the
power of light and heat.
Drawn by quest
for fire
They searched
across the land
Drawn by quest
for fire
Discovery of
man.
