Start in the mud with a spark
Small little cells in the dark
Swimming through green salty brine
Waiting for a lucky sign
We are climbing up the tree
From the ocean to the free
Changing shape to find the way
Turning night into the day
Walk on the dirt on four feet
Looking for something to eat
Growing a horn or a wing
Listen to the jungle sing
We are climbing up the tree
From the ocean to the free
Changing shape to find the way
Turning night into the day
Build up a town in the sand
Trade all the goods in the land
Learn how to speak and to read
Planting a civilized seed
We are climbing up the tree
From the ocean to the free
Changing shape to find the way
Turning night into the day
Fire the engine to fly
Slicing a hole in the sky
Steel in the hull and the beam
Living a high orbit dream
Meter is running too fast
Looking at things in the past
One little spark in the blue
Starting the whole story new
Visit the worlds in the deep
While all the old empires sleep
Silver and gold on the street
Where the strange galaxies meet
We are climbing up the tree
From the ocean to the free
Changing shape to find the way
Turning night into the day
That's the end of the line.
Keep the change, kid.
