Pete Townshend – Evolution

Well, once I was a stone, many years ago

Into a pool was thrown, many years ago

Time went by and the pool ran dry

Excavated was I, and tempered and beat in the fiery heat

By the hand of a man, whose name was Dan, Dan the blacksmith

Well once I was a daisy, many years ago

In pastures green and lazy, many years ago

But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat

And forgetting to float he sunk like a lead and stayed until dead

And was relieved to find just how kind it all was

Well, once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival

And once I was a carp and lived in waters on the meadow

And once I was a mynah bird, quoting verses from the Bible

I said pretty boy, pretty boy, Saint Luke

(Guitar solo)

Then I was born a human baby, many years ago

I remember I was born unto a lady, many years ago

All our hopes were piled on the back of a child

Who turned out to be wild, sent the devil a prayer

Caused the parson to swear so I took my leave

To lie and thieve, on my way to jail

Well, I’ve been a tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor

Known good times and disaster

But now I have a teacher and my teacher has a master

And the master is perfection, so he’ll help us get there faster

Don’t need no proof, ’cause that’s the truth, and I’ll drink to that!
