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?
