A musical tragedy with signing and dancing about alchemy and the end of the era of progress.
You want to know who started it?
I'll tell you who! Pasteur with his canned food,
Stephenson and Jessop with their railroad,
Barsanti and Daimler with their engines.
All just to improve the ways of making war!
Behind all that is the confident materialism of people like you. Insensitive people, who cannot think and have no imagination. People who pathetically believe that progress is the driving force of society.
