Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold;
Bring me my arrows of desire;
Bring me my spear; O clouds, unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.

Just wanted to clarify something... Those are triangles, not pyramids. That is all.

You almost made milk shoot out my nose. A triangle suggestive of a pyramid, but a triangle nonetheless.
What this was meant to represent was the illuminati’s rule over life. As all the attention was on the play, only a few noticed the large floodlights continuously looking down upon the stadium as a representation of the rulers of society.
The actual play itself contained various biblical references such as the prologue which included a performance of Edward Elgar's "Nimrod" followed by the anthem "Jerusalem". The act looked to be set in rural green area which could be esoterically interpreted as the Garden of Eden which included a tree which was meant to represent either the tree of life or the tree of knowledge. All the countries that where taking part eventually travelled into the garden.
The songs played throughout the ceremony contained esoteric lyrics and also songs used to indoctrinate society. Some of which include
"London Calling" by the Clash
"God Save the Queen” by ‘the Sex Pistols'
"Chariots of Fire" by Vangelis
"Going Underground" by the Jam
There were references to ‘the lord of the rings’ and ‘harry potter’ which are known to contain a great amount of symbolism.
