SOME DESIGN

INTRO: F Eb Bb F etc.

FINALE: F C7 Ab F

98% of all species that ever lived died out.
Some design, some design, some design!

An earthquake or tsunami any time could wipe us out.
Some design, some design, some design!

We’re unequipped to survive on
Two-thirds of our own earth.
With faulty senses to rely on
We’re flying blind since birth.

And in 5 billion years when the sun blows up it’ll be lights out.
Some design, some design, some design!
We’re on a spinning ball in freefall ‘around a deadly nuclear blast.
Some design, some design, some design!
All the other stars are so far away we’re stuck looking into the past.
Some design, some design, some design!

Even if we survive
Our red giant sun,
When our galaxy collides
With Andromeda we’ll be done.

And what’s left will be devoured by the Milky Way’s center of mass.
Some design, some design, some design!
The creator of the universe supposedly wrote a book.
Some design, some design, some design!
Except he didn’t make it clear enough for even the average schnook.
Some design, some design, some design!

We’ve got mistranslations
We’ve got copies of copies.
We’ve got dubious narrations
We can’t tell the q’s from the p’s

We’d love for him to clarify but no matter where we look.
We can’t find him. Some design, some design!
We can’t find him. Some design, some design!
We can’t find him. Some design, some design!
