Thanks so very much, bobad. Chris is an old friend. It's good to hear him sing again.

I got a kick out of his song "Origin of Species".

Well, Eve told Adam
Snakes? I've had 'em!
Let's get outta here!
And go raise this family someplace outta town.

They left the garden just in time
With the landlord cussin' right behind.
They headed East,
and finally settled down.

One thing led to another:
A bunch of sons,
One killed his brother
They kicked him out with nothin' but his clothes.

The human race survives
'Cause all his brothers all found wives
But where they came from
Ain't nobody knows.

Then came the flood
Go figure...
Just like New Orleans only bigger.
No one who couldn't swim would make it through.

The lucky ones were on a boat
Think "circus"
And then make it float
I hope nobody pulls the plug on you!

How they fed that crowd is a mystery.
It ain't down in the history,
but it's a cinch they didn't
live on cakes and jam.

Lions don't eat cabbage
And in spite of that old adage,
You will never see one
Lyin' down with a lamb.

Well, Charlie Darwin looked so far
Into the way things are.
He caught a glimpse of God's
unfolding plan.

God said: "I'll make some DNA"
They can use it any way they want
From paramecia
Right up to man."

"They'll have sex
And mix up sections of their code
They'll have mutations...
The whole thing works like clockwork over time."

"I'll just sit back in the shade
While everyone gets laid.
That's what I call
Intelligent design."

Yeah, you and your cat named Felix,
You both wrapped up in that double helix,
Is what we call
Intelligent design.
