"Its A Long Way From Amphioxus Lyrics"
IT'S A LONG WAY FROM AMPHIOXUS
(Mark Graham)
A fishlike thing appeared among the annelids one day
It hadn't any terrapods or cetae to display
It hadn't any eyes or jaws or ventral nervous chord
But it had a lot of gillslits and it had a notochord.
Cho.
It's a long way from amphioxus
It's a long way to us.
It's a long way from amphioxus
To the meanest human cuss.
Think Of You Lyrics
Oh Yeah Sh De Da De Dup Dem De Doo All the time I think of you Holding on to someone new Don't make me lose my mind Seems like I been here before Baby I can't take no more of
Hello lungs and hair,
It's a long, long way from amphioxus
But we all came from there.
Well, it wasn't much to look at and it scarce knew how to swim
Asterius was very sure it hadn't come from him.
The mollusks wouldn't own it and the arthropods got sore
So the poor thing had to burrow in the sand along the shore.
Cho.
It burrowed in the
Push Lyrics
Go go go push him away no no no don't let me stay He gets inside to stare at her the sleeping mouth the mouth that knows the secret you always you a smile to hid
and before it grabbed in with its tailGo go go push him away no no no don't let me stay He gets inside to stare at her the sleeping mouth the mouth that knows the secret you always you a smile to hid
And said gillslits and myotomes are all to no avail.
I've grown some metapleural folds and sport an oral hood
But all these fine new characters don't do me any good.
Cho.
He soaked a while down in the sand without a bit of pep
Then he stiffened up his notochord and said: "I'll beat 'em yet."
They laugh and show their ignorance, but I don't mind their jeers
Just wait until they see me in a hundred million years.
Cho.
My notochord will stiffen to a chain of vertebrae
As fins, my metapleural folds will agitate the sea
My tiny dorsal nervous chord will be a mighty brain
And vertebrates will dominate the animal domain.
Cho.
