I was watching Expelled and when I heard the segment from this song (Evolution) I had to stop watching and search the Internet for it. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a song that’s had little exposure, has a one-word title, a nobody artist, and the title of a controversial issue that’s also in the titles of more famous songs?
Evolution by Kevin Lee:
I didn’t crawl out of the ocean. I didn’t come from no monkey.
Science tends to forget; evolution’s just a theory.
They present it in the textbooks and on animal TV
Like it’s fact. But, tell me, were you there twelve million B.C.
.
And if you’re right and there’s no God, I guess we’ll all know before too long
If there’s nothing to believe in after we’re gone.
If you’re right I’ll eat my words and you can disregard this song.
But I’d hate to be in your shoes when you find out that you’re wrong.
.
When did evolution stop? ‘Cause fish still swim in the sea.
And last time that I checked, apes still lived in trees.
They’re not our distant cousins. And I don’t care what you say;
Giraffe’s neck is long because God made it that way.
.
And if you’re right and there’s no God, I guess we’ll all know before too long
If there’s nothing to believe in after we’re gone.
If you’re right I’ll eat my words and you can disregard this song.
But I’d hate to be in your shoes when you find out that you’re wrong.

Now it doesn’t take a genius to know there’s more than this.
But I’ll put my faith in the Word of God – not in scientists.
There’s nothing wrong with science. There’s too much good to list.
But you can stop trying to teach my kid to become an atheist.
.
And if you’re right and there’s no God, I guess we’ll all know before too long
If there’s nothing to believe in after we’re gone.
If you’re right I’ll eat my words and you can disregard this song.
But I’d hate to be in your shoes when you find out that you’re wrong.
Yeah, I’d hate to be in your shoes when you find out that you’re wrong.
I also found a YouTube video:
