We are the creatures who carry the life.
We strive hard to make you your life.
We are your ancestors.
We are the ones who helped make you possible.
You can’t live without us.
Did you know that we are the ones who helped you grow?
We started by planting a seed in shallow warm bays
And watched over it for many, many days.
It started to grow big and strong
And then many life forms evolved along.
Then went on to shore in different sizes and shapes
Including elephants, dolphins, bananas and apes.
We are the ones who carry the life.
We are the ones who strive hard to make the life.
And do you know what happened next?
It turned pretty complex.
Life continued to grow bigger and bigger
Until the world was covered with animals
Grazing, running, jumping and playing.
Then something magical happened.
Monkeys started walking on two legs
And turned into these human like creatures
With many features
Who lived in caves.
Soon they started to grow and evolve
Then they built houses and cars and bars.
Then many of them came
And started making cities, rockets and trains.
They made TV’s, movies and all kinds of crazy stuff,
Books and cartoons and I don’t know what.
We moved on to another planet
They had lives of their own
This is how far time has gone along.
Please ask no more, it’s the end of my song.
