Natural Selection (Charles Darwin)

Mmmm yeah

Mmmm yeah

People thought all animals

Arrived here unrelated

The world began, and then came man

All perfectly created

But then someone looked up a tree

And said: That monkey looks just like me!

So it really was a mystery

What I'd learned in natural history

So I joined HSM Beagle

Watched the eagle and the seagull

We studied rock and plants

Flowers, trees and bees and ants

Slept on hammocks without pillows

Eating rats and armadillos

Till I realised on reflec-tion

It's natural selection! Yeah

Natural selection means

Each animal evolved

To blend with it's surroundings

Ch-ch-changes were involved

So birds with different, foods to seek

Seemed have developed, different beaks

And over time they'd

Modified

So just the fittest

Of them all survived

On the Isles of Galapagos

I noted the giant tortoise

Had interesting shells

And I rode on them as well

Iguanas land and swimming

Meant my new theory was winning

It all led in the direction

Of natural selection

My findings went without rage

From the ch-ch-ch-ch-church of England

And from me

The idea that we came from ch-ch-chimps

Questioned my own Christianity

But it was hard to disagree

Every species new mutation

Had a perfect explaination

It seems the world's exception

Must be date con and perception

And if lack of adaptation

Miss a fatal limitation

So each creature's imperfection

Over time gets a correction

Meaning animal collections

Grow unique means of protection

And to fail nature's inspection

Means a media projection

Which all leads to the detec-tion

Of natural selection
