Not Me
I don't know about you,
but as for me
I got created by God ---
I didn't come swinging to the ground from a tree
I didn't evolve from a slug
that came slithering out of the water
I wasn't formed from some seed
spit out of an alien asteroid pod
No, sir, I was made by God
I can't stop nobody
from believing in evolution nonsense
If you think an ape is your uncle,
your daddy might be the son of a baboon prince
If you think your auntie is a chimpanzee,
that's on you ...
That's your side of the family
You'll never see me going bananas,
have me thinking sideways
In His image, God said He had us made,
I didn't crawl out an egg like some say
No, not me
I'm a God-created man,
got no dinosaur ancestry
So you and your cave-dwelling relatives,
don't try to climb up my family tree
