about

Mutation sucks (and isn't the same as evolution).

lyrics

if you think the ninja turtles evolved after getting slime'd / you might then be mistaken / evolving takes far more time / mutation's what that's called / and it doesn't happen much / could be toxin exposure or irradiated sludge / mutation is detrimental / I am saying that it's really not that helpful / so try to curb your charisma / unless you happen to be a hydra / used to think back when you'd evolve to X-Men / if you fell in a vat of a dangerous chem / but species vary and they're all unique / that's in part the result of making tons of babies / a stalk eyed fly's antennae may seem stretched out way too wide / as gross as this will sound / that is where they keep their eyes / could make you think of alien / don't let that stir your fright / a stalk eyed fly will group at dusk and mostly roost at night / mostly / stalk eyed fly heard another scoff / he didn't understand why he buzzed everybody off / knowing their antennae weren't as wide / compensating for their lack of ... site / said a female fly, "I think you're my phenotype!" / that wide antennae really caught my eye / and even though the other males are bugged by you / I really like that stretchy thing you do with your face / a lyrebird's a lying bird / they chirp like a chainsaw / mimicking the things they've heard to sound like they belong / "I'm a tool!" / traits help with surviving be it how to hunt or bait / adapting extreme temperatures / or how to choose a mate / but adapting isn't random you see / it's not like throwing dice or winning the lottery / variation though is unpredictable / and selection is all natural / used to think back when you'd evolve to X-Men / if you fell in a vat of a dangerous chem / but superhero wannabees / evolving's not like that you see / it's isolation / separation / and simply adapting
