Lyrics
Before we ever saw straight, we were grasping at straws A debate was born, picket lines were drawn There was this big bang once, now we're learning 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 standing on our own two feet There was this big bang once, we've been sharpening 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 talking snake giving apples away What would that snake say if he could only see us today? Ha ha ha! 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 drifting 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? Ha!
