Comin' to Life
Verse 1:
Well, you can tell by the way your teachers balk
That they don't really want to talk
About a little puddle warm
Where the first living cell was born.
They can't figure out a way,
No matter what your teachers say.
They still try to understand
How this process led up to man.
Chorus:
One way or another they are trying to discover
How a cell came to life, a cell came to life.
Assumptions they have taken and
Excuses they are makin'
Just can't stand the light.
You know they aren't right.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, Comin' To Life
Just can't stand the light.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, It's just a lie.
Verse 2:
No matter how your teachers try
They can't convince you of the lie.
It's tough walking in their shoes.
In debates they always lose.
They can't figure out a way
No matter what your teachers say
They still try to understand
How this process led up to man
Chorus:
One way or another they are trying to discover
How a cell came to life, a cell came to life.
Assumptions they have taken and
Excuses they are makin'
Just can't stand the light.
You know they aren't right.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, Comin' To Life
Just can't stand the light.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, It's just a lie.
Bridge:
In a warm puddle, or
Under the sea floor,
They haven't got a clue.
They have to teach it,
What are they going to have to do?
They have to lie!
Verse 3:
Well, they don't know how apes stood up to walk,
Made some tools, and learned to talk.
Don't know how birds learned to fly
And winged their way across the sky.
Even though they don't know
They still insist it's really so
They really do belive it's true
That pond scum has evolved to you.
Chorus:
One way or another they are trying to discover
How a cell came to life, a cell came to life.
Assumptions they have taken and
Excuses they are makin'
Just can't stand the light.
You know they aren't right.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, Comin' To Life
Just can't stand the light.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, It's just a lie.
Bridge:
The proof is nowhere, so they can't tell me
They just can't tell me, yeah.
The proof is nowhere, so they can't tell me,
They have to lie!
[repeat and fade]
