Galaxy DNA Song

Just remember you're a tiny little person on a planet In a universe expanding and immense That life began evolving and dissolving and resolving In the deep primordial oceans by the hydrothermal vents Our earth which had its birth almost five billion years ago From out of a collapsing cloud of gas Grew life which was quite new And eventually led to you In only three point five billion years or less. Deoxyribonucleic acid helps us replicate And randomly mutate from day to day. We left the seas and climbed the trees And our biologies Continued to evolve through DNA. We're 98.9 per cent the same as chimpanzees Whose trees we left three million years ago To wander swapping genes out of Africa which means We're related to everyone we know. Life is quite strange Life is quite weird, Life is really quite odd Life from a star is far more bizarre, Than an old bearded man they call God So gaze at the sky, and start asking why You're even here on this ball For though life is fraught The odds are so short You're lucky to be here at all... Standing on a planet which is spinning round a star One of just a billion trillion suns In a Universe that's ninety billion light years side to side Wondering where the heck it all came from. You've a tiny little blink of life to try and understand What on earth is really going on In biology and chemistry Which made you you and made me me But don't ask me I only wrote the song.
