ALICE COOPER

- Brutal Planet Lyrics

We're spinning round on this ball of hate
There's no parole, there's no great escape
We're sentenced here until the end of days
And then my brother there's a price to pay

We're only human, we were born to die
Without the benefit of reason why
We live for pleasure - to be satisfied
And now it's over there's no place to hide

Why don't you, come down too
It's such a brutal planet
It's such an ugly world
Why won't you, come down too

"This world is such perfection" (What a sight)
"It's just like paradise" (For my eyes)
"A truly grand creation" (What a sight)
"From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes)

It's such a brutal planet
It's such a living hell
It was a holy garden
That's right where Adam fell
It's where the bite was taken
It's where we chose to sin
It's where we first were naked
This is where our death begins

We took advice from that deceiving snake
He said don't worry it's a piece of cake
And sent us swimming in a burning lake
Now we're abandoned here for heaven's sake

Why don't you, come down too
It's such a brutal planet
It's such an ugly world
Why won't you, come down too

"This world is such perfection" (What a sight)
"It's just like paradise" (For my eyes)
"A truly grand creation" (What a sight)
"From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes)

Here's where we keep the armies
Here's where we write those names
Here's where the money god is
Here's our famous hall of shame
Here's where we starve the hungry
Here's where we cheat the poor
Here's where we beat the children
Here is where we pay the whore

Why don't you, come down too
It's such a brutal planet
It's such an ugly world
Why won't you, come down too

"This world is such perfection" (What a sight)
"It's just like paradise" (For my eyes)
"A truly grand creation" (What a sight)
"From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes)

Right here we stoned the prophets
Built idols out of mud
Right here we fed the lions
Christian flesh and Christian blood
Down here is where we hung ya
Upon an ugly cross
Over there we filled the ovens
Right here the holocaust

What is the meaning behind Brutal Planet lyrics?


When we try to interpret the meaning, Alice Cooper's song 'Brutal Planet' portrays the world in a very dark light, categorizing it as a cruel and hideous place with pain and sin all around. The lyrics refer to the 'holy garden' and the 'deceiving snake' as metaphors underpinning the fall of man as well as the divine punishment of us, thus making the arguments of betrayal, temptations, and the darker sides of our nature come forth. While the song lyrics mainly talk about torment, despair, social commentary, anger, and reflection, they also convey the message of the world's brutality, human suffering and sin, disillusionment with the ideal and social injustice. The lyrics contain the themes of violence, death, and refer to historical atrocities that some consider adult material. The use of 'brutal planet' and 'ugly world' with the mention of sin and suffering indicates a level of severity that is not appropriate for children unless accompanied by parents.
