Natural Selection Songtext
von Guy Fletcher

History was not made entirely
By prominent men of the world
The loss of a childhood mother
A date with immortality to the grave
Humanity held a voice to be heard of the day

Years spent circling the wide world
Rarely a moment′s escape from the waves
He came upon cruelty and hardship
Slavery bound, men god made
It took seven days or so they believed by the grace, grace of god

Nature the cause of it all
What do we see in the patterns of our studying
Species of trees colours of feather birds on the wing


Believing a great man of science
Has no affections heart of stone
Becoming of noble ambition
Pushing the bounds of belief the unknown
A new history shaping the way that we see everything

Nature the cause of it all
What do we see in the patterns of our studying
Farther from home must we head on our journeying
Many degrees are considered god only knows
When we return from our travels by way the wind blows

Riches were being poisoned
Old friends united in disdain
Convincing an institution
Theories that go against the grain
Was never the same after they all got to hear him explain

Nature the cause of it all
What do we see in the patterns of our studying
Farther from home must we venture before we can sing
Songs of the sea and our lovers we will atone
We will return from our travels by way the wind blown
