A crusade against computers, many centuries ago
In the dark nuclear age, for human mind to rule
Space travel reformed, navigation monopolised
Addicted to the unique spice, for the male to dominate
Thinking machines, exchanged for drugs
The great revolt, for human mind to rule
A school established, new abilities developed
Mental training, for the female to prevail
The Butlerian Jihad, the servants‘ revenge
Chaos and revolution, on the ride to new planes
The god of machine-logic, overthrown among the masses
A new concept raised, man may not be replaced
The new cradle of mankind, the subtle narcotics
A new order of guiding, the universe to explore
The honoured sisterhood, the mysterious guild
Band the sorceresses, examine the void
Rumours and secrets, act behind the scenes
The black arm of superstition, limitations removed
Breeding programmes, prescience sought
Awareness produced, religions sown
Higher order dimensions, the horizon veiled
A lack of interference, the final march to come
The Butlerian Jihad, the servants‘ revenge
Chaos and revolution, on the ride to new planes
The god of machine-logic, overthrown among the masses
A new concept raised, man may not be replaced.
