Darwin Was Right

DARWIN WAS RIGHT, THE FITTEST WILL SURELY SURVIVE
THE WEAK, THE SICKLY, THE OLD WILL NOT STAY ALIVE
THE FOOLISH, THE GAMBLERS HAVE A SLIGHT CHANCE
THERE’S NO GUARANTEE THEY’LL BE HERE  ABLE TO DANCE
THE SMART, THE CLEVER, THE LUCKY WILL BE ABLE TO SAY
WE USED PRECAUTIONS SO AS TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY 

HUMANS ARE GREGARIOUS THEY NEED OTHERS AROUND
WELCOME THE NOISE, THE SPEECH OF INCOMING SOUND
OUR EYES ARE RESTLESS WE NEED NEW SIGHTS TO SEE
OUR SENSES NEED CHALLENGES, WE NEED TO BE FREE
WE NEED TO SUPPRESS OUR USUAL HABITS, JUST FOR A WHILE
ACT SMART, DON’T GAMBLE, GET TOUGH, WEAR A SMILE
TIMES OF UNCERTAINTIES, DON’T ADD TO DARWIN’S LIST
AVOID GATHERINGS, WEAR A MASK IF YOU PLAN TO EXIST.
