Nothing But Fig Leaves

They say Adam and Eve pranced around wearing nothing But fig leafs and the biggest grins the world has ever seen Imagine NO FREAKING RULES!!! All they had to worry about were those thorny bushes And the occasional lightning bolt accompanied by a loud booming voice Reminding Adam, “You owe me big time for this one, my friend!” Caine and Abel along with seven other offsprings Were the result of a lot of hanky panky Do you blame him??? He was the luckiest dude EVER!!! My question is, how did they keep those fig leafs in place Scotch Tape? Elmer's Glue? Velcro? Also why did they need those damn things to begin with There wasn't another living soul to be seen Imagine today, if we walked around naked as a jaybird The population of the world would soar from 7 billion To well over 20 billion in a matter of nine months counting twins I'm not saying we couldn't carry on as usual with our daily routine But perhaps the routine would be interrupted now and then I have a suggestion for future generations if this becomes a problem Think of Drew Carey nude!
