The Phylogenetic Me

from Giant Leaps by Professor Karmadillo

/

lyrics

I am just a leaf
On the phylogenetic tree
Swaying in the breeze
Its so beautiful to see

Tracing through the lines the lines
Showing how we're all defined
Relations through the eras
Bringing all life forms so much nearer

Sit, and look, in wonder, at how we all got here
Stand, and stare, and ponder at evolution through so many years

Some might say how?
By looking at the life of now
Genes and fossils show
Just how far back together we go

Common genes can indicate
When our ancestors were once the same
The ones we do not share
Tell us when if not where

Sit, and look, in wonder, at how we all got here
Stand, and stare, and ponder at evolution through so many years

Close your eyes
Go back in time
Experience the feeling
Of being one with so many other beings
