I try my best to keep an open mind
About things that others believe
So I gave a creationist some time
To convince me that he isn’t naïve

Straight away he said something funny
That the theory of evolution is wrong
What’s more that science can prove
What the Bible has said all along

I just about pissed my trousers
Everyone knows we evolved from apes
Hadn’t he seen that diagram
Of man going though all different shapes?

They teach evolution in schools
Surely they know what they’re talking about
He said he used to teach it in university
His belief in it was absolutely devout

But after studying new evidence
Without blindly accepting the dogma
He came to realise there was something fishy
About the whole missing link enigma

So he started doing some lateral thinking
To work out the logic of natural selection
Within seconds he had discovered
Random mutations do not create perfection

Furthermore, if nature had to choose one
Then there would have had to have been two

So that can explain survival of the fittest
But not how we came to a jumping kangaroo

He then explained that genes react to stimulus
That’s why some creatures have more than one guise
Let’s say for instance you put a cockroach in a cave
After eight generations it loses its eyes

It is the switching on or off of inherent codes
In our DNA that explains how life evolved
And the mystery of how Noah got all the animals
Onto his little Ark can now at last be solved

He only needed to take one kind of each animal
For each one carried the codes for them all
Then they adapted depending on their environment
Just like we did in the fearful garden after the fall

There was a time when everything was perfect
Man did lie down with the vegan lion
The snake’s venom was harmless saliva
Until our sinful nature took us away from Zion

This man then went on to explain why in detail
So much so that I have changed my mind
I no longer believe the laughable ‘Ape to Man’ theory
Instead, I believe that god created mankind

On top of the science what really impressed me
Was the way he proved all that stuff in the Bible
It turns out that god knew what he was doing
We can no longer sue him for neglect or libel

We were created for the glory of the most high

You can call it what you like even intelligent design
So if god says the meek will inherit the garden
I for one, will do my best not to malign

Actually, on second thoughts he was talking pish
Believers in something say what they want to prove it
That goes for both sides of the evolution story
Cause even Darwin eventually admitted his theory was shit

One day we may find the answer to where we came from
But first we should start treating each other with kindness
Then we can say for sure that we are no longer animals
So let’s use our bigger brains to get us out of this blindness

Cheers!
