The Man, the Wood, & the Stone Lyrics
There once lived a man, long ago,
In a land of days dark and cold,
Blessed with gifted hands, and wood and stone,
Birthed a glowing flame that none had known
People gathered round,
From every land and town
They'd never seen such a wonder, such warmth and such light,
Dancing and blazing through wild, fickle nights,
He showed them how they too could make such a fire
With their own two hands, with their own two hands
Well, the priests and the preachers, they heard of this man,
How his teachings of fire quickly spread through the land,
They feared such a power ought not rest in the hands of plain men
So they conspired to end him, in secret you see,
But the people wanted answers, so quite cleverly,
They built a shrine and throne
Of the man, the wood and the stone
People worshipped on,
But oh, the flame was gone
They were taught man is evil,
He must do as the law requires,
And he must never, oh but never
Play with fire
In a land of days dark and cold,
Blessed with gifted hands, and wood and stone,
Birthed a glowing flame that none had known
From every land and town
Dancing and blazing through wild, fickle nights,
He showed them how they too could make such a fire
With their own two hands, with their own two hands
How his teachings of fire quickly spread through the land,
They feared such a power ought not rest in the hands of plain men
But the people wanted answers, so quite cleverly,
They built a shrine and throne
Of the man, the wood and the stone
But oh, the flame was gone
He must do as the law requires,
And he must never, oh but never
Play with fire
