| One dark night, there was a big bang
|
| Maybe a small bang, actually, more of a pop
|
| But whatever it was, something went off
|
| Yeah
|
| That was the first time we startled his punch line
|
| But now we’re all growin', with none of us knowin'
|
| Where we are goin', where we are goin'
|
| Must I evolve? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I change? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I develop? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Can I stay the same?
|
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
|
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
|
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
|
| No, no, no (No, no, no, no)
|
| We’re proud of ourselves, we’re two single cells
|
| Now it gets excitin', because cells start dividin'
|
| A new organism, now we can go swimmin'
|
| In that primordial soup
|
| Now is the time to come out of the water
|
| Puffin' and pantin' onto dry land
|
| I held your hand on a rocky shoreline
|
| I stood erect for the very first time
|
| And I’m so glad, yeah, I’m so glad
|
| Looking for shelter, we’re looking for trouble
|
| Now we’re building a home out of the rubble
|
| We moved in together, you painted a wall
|
| I discovered fire, even giants started small
|
| Must I evolve? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I change? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I develop? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Can I stay the same? |
| (No, no, no, no)
|
| Must I grow up? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I grow old? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I join in? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| And do as I’m told? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I mature? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| How come you’re so sure? |
| (Yes, yes)
|
| Must I evolve? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I endure?
|
| I’m so glad we made it, I’m so glad we made it
|
| I’m so glad, I’m so glad, so glad, so glad
|
| And now we’re back in the stone age…
|
| Back in the stone age
|
| The mind in the cave
|
| Out of your mind at a rave
|
| I walked through a tunnel, backwards through time
|
| Dragging my knuckles, listening to Frankie Knuckles
|
| Someone has lost their drugs in the long grass
|
| Cars pass by, and the occasional badger
|
| I entered a dance-off, you laughed your head off
|
| Afterwards, steaming, like a horse in the morning
|
| After a race, I looked in your face
|
| Universes multiplied, still, we were not satisfied
|
| Still, we were not satisfied, still, we were not satisfied
|
| In caverns underground, stalactites are forming
|
| Someone is wearing hot pants in the morning
|
| And we are growing taller and taller
|
| Taller and taller, taller and taller
|
| Taller and taller, taller and taller
|
| Taller and taller, taller and taller, tall, tall
|
| Must I evolve? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I change? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I develop? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Can I stay the same? |
| (No, no, no, no)
|
| Must I grow up? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I grow old? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I join in? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| And do as I’m told? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Oh, must I mature? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| How come you’re so sure? |
| (Yes, yes)
|
| Must I evolve? |
| (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
|
| Must I endure? |
