oh darwin
i believe thee
your clever views do...have charm
believe the same as you do
but others, you do...alarm

oh darwin
what a theory
i've chose to make it...my own
conceived entirely by you
i think your genius...has shown

well, you've shown me
though creatures breed forevermore
there are those that weakly broke down and died
well, you've shown me
there'll be new species by the score
while, you know, some others just won't....survive

oh darwin
christians peeve me
they've got ideas..of their own
believe what they think is true
they think your teachings...do harm

well, you've shown me
that i should heed what some ignore
you'd think that all this fuss would...have died
well, you've shown me
that if one reads, they'll know the score
well, you know, some folks are too dumb...to try

oh darwin
i perceive thee
as someone justly...reknowned
believing your word is true
i'd never call you...a clown
