The world was once a plain field
Then some became bored
And they built walls
Then some became fearful
And they built walls
Then some became powerful
And they built walls
Then some became chaste
And they built walls
Then some became angry
And they built walls
Then some became pious
And they built walls
Then some became rich
And they built walls
Then some became united
And they built walls
Then the world became
A city of walls
