Evolution, they Say

[Intro whispered] Don't you know what Darwin said? Now don't you know what Darwin said? [Verse] First there was a monkey Gaunt and not so hunky Eating grass and roots At the bottom of the food chain So they came up with something Use that branch as a weapon Not for munching All monkey's enemies were slain! [Chorus] Don't you know what Darwin said? Life moves on and on and on From slime to ape From ape to man Then from human to in-human [Verse] The monkey and their cubs Said "no more swinging clubs" Let us build something better instead The monkey shaped plans inside its head All other creatures trembled with dread At the sight of the monkey A monkey with a plan [Chorus] Don't you know what Darwin said? Life moves on and on and on From slime to ape From ape to man Then from human to in-human [Verse] First he took a branch Then he made a spear Then he made a sword Monkey no more fear Monkey spread the word Then monkey built a gun Monkey kingdom just begun No more fear the rain Monkey no fear sun Monkey now has name Monkey with no shame Monkey now called Adam Now monkey can split the atom! [Chorus] Don't you know what Darwin said? Life moves on and on and on From slime to ape From ape to man Then from human to in-human [Bridge] Homo sapiens' just a step The best is yet to come Come my little monkeys, come and see How our inventions will set us free Homo sapiens' just a step Homo sapiens' just a step You'll be amazed by what's about to come Monkey no more fear the rain Monkey conquer all under the sun! Homo sapiens' just a step The best is yet to come Homo sapiens' just a step The best is yet to come Don't you know?... [Chorus] Don't you know what Darwin said? Life moves on and on and on From slime to ape From ape to man Then from human to in-human
