A hundred billion years ago
We came out of the fire
Hands and feet from gills and fins
Pulled us from the mire
Generations come and go
With each a subtle change
Time enough to watch the seasons
Turn from snow to rain
Sands are shifting the earth and the sea
Don't fear the spirit of change
Under the sky and the trees
Crawling right out of the sea
The future is for you and me
Evolution
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Science marches on
Turning black night into day
Somehow somewhere we believe
It will stay that way
Generations disengage
All that came before
Changing further rearranging
On forevermore
Sands are shifting the earth and the sea
Don't fear the spirit of change
Under the sky and the trees
Crawling right out of the sea
The future is for you and me
Evolution
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Under the sky and the trees
Crawling right out of the sea
The future is for you and me
Evolution
Revolution
Evolution
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's like a daydream, clouds through the haze
Laki a Dali scene, melting away
It paints a picture, lights in the sky
In the valley low, mountains so high
A hundred billion years from now
We won't look the same
All that will remain
Is the face of constant change
Time goes on forever, never running out
Likely we will never know
Just what it's all about
Sands are shifting the earth and the sea
Don't fear the spirit of change
Under the sky and the trees
