Before we ever saw straight |
|
We were graspin' at straws |
|
A debate was born |
|
Picket lines were drawn |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
Now we're learnin' to use our thumbs |
|
We need a purpose in life |
|
A survival guide |
|
We need explanations |
|
For how we arrived |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
Now we're standin' on our own two feet |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
We've been sharpenin' up our teeth |
|
They say there was this big bang once |
|
But the clergyman doesn't agree, oh no |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
But it don't jive with Adam and Eve |
|
Original sin, idyllic garden |
|
Some talkin' snake givin' apples away |
|
What would that snake say |
|
If he could only see us today? |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
We were left here to fill in the blanks |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
Now we're aimlessly driftin' in space |
|
We're gonna need an explanation for rational thought |
|
And what it meant and the weight of our hearts |
|
In a world of entropy, why can't we just simply be? |
|
And don't feed me lies, intelligent design |
|
There was this big bang once |
|
Why are we raptured on our knees? |
