Like a man in love must do
I was moving in on you
And I didn't care how long I'd have to wait
I knew it was a bet
But I now know better yet
That the race was over right out of the gate
Like a big dirigible ship
At first a little blip
Getting bigger, ever bigger in your sky
But as I got overhead
You dropped me like a ton of lead
And I blew up in front of everybody's eyes
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
Though it really wasn't clear
What that guy meant when he said
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
I was moving in on glory
When all the sudden I was dead
Like history being made
It was watched by a brigade
Like old news reels they show in matinees
With the news reels in their eyes
Even they were most surprised
It unfolded in an unexpected way
The Hindenburg of love
Had me riding high above
My head was floating lighter than the air
But it ended in bad news
Like someone lit a fuse
And the explosion of my heart caused quite a blare
Jones and Bonham, Plant and Page
Put Led Zeppelin on a stage
And the MetLife blimp put Snoopy in the sky
Honey tell me, whats the deal?
Why I'm now burning in a field?
Was sabotage what made our romance die?
You led me to the site
That dark and fateful night
My landing lines were out and hanging down
But soon you lit a spark
Just a small electric arc
And history just came crashing to the ground
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
Though it really wasn't clear
What that guy meant when he said
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
I was moving in on glory
When all the sudden I was dead
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
The announcers words were odd
But I'm the one who tried to holler
Aw, the humanity!
Aw, the humanity!
Our romance ended badly
In an unexpected way
