Story behind the song
This song is about the way the human is treating himself, the nature and our Planet.
Everything has its source in the faults, deficits, weaknesses and wickednesses with which the human is tainted. This all is already described in the Book “Das Narrenschiff” (the Ship of Fools/Barco de los Tontos) from Sebastian Brant-Basel,from the year 1494, one of the most successful Books of its time.
All the different wickedness is described and illustrated by woodcuts…a really funny Book. We can find us all in the one or nother way.
