MUST I EVOLVE?

(الألبوم: Beyond The Pale - 2020)

Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I change? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I develop? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Can I stay the same? (No, no, no, no)
Must I grow up? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I grow old? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I join in? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
And do as I'm told? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I mature? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
How come you're so sure? (Yes, yes)
Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I endure?

One dark night, there was a big bang
Maybe a small bang, actually, more of a pop
But whatever it was, something went off
Yeah

That was the first time we startled his punch line
But now we're all growing, with none of us knowing
Where we are going, where we are going

Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I change? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I develop? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Can I stay the same?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
No, no, no (No, no, no, no)

We're proud of ourselves, we're two single cells
Now it gets exciting, because cells start dividing
A new organism, now we can go swimming
In that primordial soup

Now is the time to come out of the water
Puffing and panting onto dry land
I held your hand on a rocky shoreline
I stood erect for the very first time
And I'm so glad, yeah, I'm so glad

Looking for shelter, we're looking for trouble
Now we're building a home out of the rubble
We moved in together, you painted a wall
I discovered fire, even giants started small

Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I change? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I develop? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Can I stay the same? (No, no, no, no)
Must I grow up? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I grow old? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I join in? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
And do as I'm told? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I mature? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
How come you're so sure? (Yes, yes)
Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I endure?

I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
I'm so glad, I'm so glad, so glad, so glad
And now we're back in the stone age...

Back in the stone age
The mind in the cave
Out of your mind at a rave

I walked through a tunnel, backwards through time
Dragging my knuckles, listening to Frankie Knuckles
Someone has lost their drugs in the long grass
Cars pass by, and the occasional badger

I entered a dance-off, you laughed your head off
Afterwards, steaming, like a horse in the morning
After a race, I looked in your face
Universes multiplied, still, we were not satisfied
Still, we were not satisfied, still, we were not satisfied

In caverns underground, stalactites are forming
Someone is wearing hot pants in the morning
And we are growing taller and taller
Taller and taller, taller and taller
Taller and taller, taller and taller
Taller and taller, taller and taller, tall, tall

Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I change? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I develop? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Can I stay the same? (No, no, no, no)
Must I grow up? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I grow old? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I join in? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
And do as I'm told? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Oh, must I mature? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
How come you're so sure? (Yes, yes)
Must I evolve? (Yes, yes, yes, yes)
Must I endure?
