The Amoeba People - Continental Drift lyrics

[Verse] In the year of 1910 there was a scientist Whose name was Alfred Wegener He noticed that the continents looked just like Pieces of a broken puzzle By 1915 he called it Continental Drift It caused a rift With his fellow scientists (who sang) [Chorus] Ha! Ha! Alfred Wegener! You are a crazy man! Ha! Ha! Alfred Wegener! You are a crazy little man! [Verse] They reminded him he had no proof For how or why the continents could do this And until you show just how or why You merely have one interesting hypothesis Until this evidence we see You don't have a theory [Chorus] Ha! Ha! Alfred Wegener! You are a crazy man! Ha! Ha! Alfred Wegener! You are a crazy little man! [Verse] In the year of 1930 On an expedition to Greenland Wegener got caught in a blizzard When they finally found him It was much, oh much too late And they buried him in an icy mausoleum 30 years after he died A new idea came to light Plate Tectonics, Plate Tectonics It changed the way geologists saw the world And brought Continental Drift back to life Now everybody sings: [Chorus] Yee haw! Alfred Wegener! You are a brilliant man! Yee haw! Alfred Wegener! You are a brilliant, brilliant man! [Outro] Continental Drift! Alfred Wegener's theory! Continental Drift! Alfred Wegener's theory! Continental Drift! Alfred Wegener's theory! Continental Drift! Alfred Wegener's brilliant theory!
