When all the laughter dies in sorrow

When all the laughter dies in sorrow 
and the tears have risen to a flood
When  all the wars have found a cause
 in human wisdom and in blood 
 Do you think they'll cry in sadness? 
Do you think the eye will blink? 
Do you think they'll curse the madness?
 Do you even think they'll think? 
When  all the great galactic systems 
sign to a frozen halt in space 
Do you think there will be some remnant of beauty 
of the human race?
Do you think that it will be a vestige or a sniffle or a tear?
do you think a greater thinking thing will give a d*** that man was here?
