The Charles Darwin Stomp (words&music by Ludo Klink)
Keep ya' peckers up ol'boys, don't let them play with your toys
Keep your chin up and grin everyday
Though the world's a big ol' mess and your daytime full of stress
We're so happy that we can play
On this earth there's misery and pain
Disasters no one can explain
When there's a god, maybe he can tell
Why we're all living like in hell
There was a priest who told the natives: "RUN,
when you die you go to hell and burn"
The inuit said: "Fine, it's to cold anyway
so your hell seems a real neat place to stay"
When we were apes, life was not too bad
Eat, shit and mate, all we ever had
With evolution all the trouble starts
Rape, kill and plunder and watching stupi darts
So for all who believe this life is swell
Look around and conclude it's living hell
But we keep on singing anyway
Play our Charles Darwin blues everyday
