We Are All Born Creeps - McCarthy

Evil first entered the world when Adam and Eve tried to know.

They tested the apple of death

and Original Sin was passed on from them to us.

So when we’re born, we are bad.

There’s no evil that we’ll not do.

But God’s love can turn us around!

And then we can become warm-hearted people.

That’s what it says in the Bible, and oh, well it may be true.

It may be true what it says,

But in these godless days to Science we look for the truth.

And what does Science say?

That selfishness is in our genes.

So when we’re born we are bad.

Each one of us longs to compete.

And only the strong ones survive.

They reach for the top!

They make all the big money!

And those born with less strong genes —

Well, they make ends meet as dustmen and things like that.

It’s hard, but it’s natural.

Nature won’t be messed with.

Do you want to live in Russia?

No, it’s hard, but it’s natural.

Nature won’t be messed with.
