Adam And Eve And Koko

Trapped in the Garden of Eden, converse with Adam and Eve and

Their mother 600 lbs., smiling down from a tree branch

And poppa's gone, yet he left behind the semen

That would fertilize debates to question what would we believe in

Sign language primitive, no auditory vernacular

Predating the pyramids, I recorded this spectacular

Dialogue now to unfold, incomprehensible to behold

I recorded the story that was soon to be told, they said

[Chorus x2:]

We're bridgin the gap, to create an evolution

Theologians provide beliefs scientists are refutin

Place the puzzle back together - evoke a solution

Now we're bridgin the gap to understand what made you human

Adam turned to Eve to figure where to begin

And their mother started laughing, commenced the saga with a grin

"First things first," she signed, "and what you've go to understand

Is countless generations predated the creation of man

Kind - the offspring - steadily growing to perfection

Leaping over lost souls to maintain the connection"

"Now hold on, hold up, let me see if I got this right

Each advancement's made manifest by past's previous plight?

What about immaculate conception? Divine intervention?

God's manuscript designed it, split it into sections"

Stone faced, they looked dazed, gazed deeply with bewilderment

And asked me what I meant by "God's" self-designed manuscript

I described to them the Bible, Bhagavagitta and Koran

Questions asked, answers given, the night progressed into dawn

"I understand now," they signed, with intense jubilation

"Now simply connect the dots, we'll provide a new placement"

[Chorus x2:]

We're bridgin the gap, to create an evolution

Theologians provide beliefs scientists are refutin

Place the puzzle back together - evoke a solution

Now we're bridgin the gap to understand what made you human

"It's beautiful, if you think what it takes to be alive

And how far creation's come and evolved as you described

Yet your science and religion seem to bicker from sides

Realize that the divide is one that you yourself designed"

"But wait a second," I proclaimed, "you seem to be missing the point

Each side is a polar opposite, mutually exclusive voice"

"It's a choice," Eve interjected, "in what you choose to believe

But there's never an absolute, there's always an in-between

God begat the first atom that preceded the reaction

Single cells reproduced, evolution was meant to happen

In that way, humanity, in fact all of creation's

A representation of God's image, God's reflection"

"In addition," Adam added, "we're all products of the sun

Sons and daughters, mothers, fathers, all objects are part of one

Since the universe begun, and every being is cosmic

You may think you've missed it all, but you really haven't lost it
