Stereolab - Slow Fast Hazel Lyrics

Discovery of fire, America,
The invention of the wheel, steel work and democracy
Philosophy, the soviets and other events in history of humanity
Happened at a certain given moment in time

Won't go back to the days couldn't even start a fire
Won't go back to the days america'd not been discovered
The transition has been operated for ever
What had gone on before from what there'd been after
