Tackle The Walrus

de Valient Thorr

Before the dawning of mankind
Other creatures roamed this land
They were from a far off time
And they brought with them a plan

From a dying portal in the sky it came
A grey transporter set the sky ablaze,

It was raining fire from the heavens

In search of sanctuary to the earth they came,
All life before this point had just been washed away

Asteroids and comets ripped right
Through the atmosphere
Laid waste to all the dinosaurs its a cycle
Its a cycle that's been going on since before this world began,
Even though they cause destruction
They're vital, they're a vital part of reality,
The spores in side were alive
When the dust settled over the ocean bed
They watched it they watched the natural process of evolution in the raw
Lifeforms grew in the water and this is what they saw

"They saw volcanoes, earth was a wreck
The cooling of the lava produced a side effect
They saw amoeba combine with light,
They saw the first thing crawl on land and try to walk upright
They saw the dolphin, they saw the ape,
The combination of the two would help the world take shape"

(They bred them) on the beaches
It was called pangea population spread
So fast it caused an imbalance
But that couldn't stop em even then,

C'mon!
Let's get on the road,
I got something to show,
Pull up your roots, and pack your bags, let's go!

Let's get on the road,
I got something to show,
Pull up your roots, and pack your bags, let's go!

To the mountain and then you will see
The place where pangea major used to be
The tectonic plates moved where workers had mined
The shift in the continents divided mankind
Tidal waves broke the goddamned thing in half,
Seven pieces that wouldn't last
Spread like germs, that's the human virus form

Seeds were planted here on earth,
Young mothers then gave birth
They remembered the men from the sky,
Named them gods and never questioned why?

Climb up the mountain and see for yourself
The ice caps are melting away from the shelf
The earth is evolving, you must have forgot,
The life on this planet has only one shot.
Tidal waves broke the goddamned thing in half,
Seven pieces that wouldn't last
Earths been silent many times, you seem to forget:

We are temporary
You are temporary
We're all temporary
