THE ORIGIN OF ME

THE ORIGIN OF ME

(Part five)

Got another story to tell the grand kids today

While out in the barn and playing in the hay

The sheep's in the meadow, cow's in the corn

We better bring them in, as sure as you're born

Now to continue my tale of life through the ages

We'll open the book and we'll turn a few pages

We'll skip ahead but just a few million years

I'll tell how I helped Noah to make a few beers

Now Noah was busy, he was working ever so hard

Building Gods great Ark way out in his back yard

Now every week on the Sabbath Noah had to rest

He had to get some relaxation to be at his best

From scraps of lumber we built us a keg or two

Brewed some beer, filled 'em with our homebrew

Meanwhile I helped Noah build the Ark you know

So when the flood came me and Gramma could go

We worked all week just like we knew we should

Now Noah got thirsty and he drank all he could

Poor Noah got drunk and took off all his clothes

His daughters covered him up before anyone arose

Now the Good Lord forgave us, both Noah and me

And then said from now on you better make tea

We doubled up on our work and we put in overtime

When we got done, the Lord said it was sublime

Now round up the animals, bring them two by two

Bring the Hip hippopotamus and the K Kangaroo

Lions, tigers, bears and birds, even the mouse

Get them settled in the Ark like it's a new house

Bring all of the animals, don't forget even a few

Because after the flood we have to start all anew

How we gonna get critters from all over the world

Wind started up and the flag on the Ark unfurled

It must have been  a sign, here all the animals came

Every kind there was, some we couldn't even name

They marched down the road in pairs by them self

The birds flew in and landed on the Ark on a shelf

The storm clouds came then and it started to rain 

We had to launch the Ark without any champagne

God sealed all the doors and we began to float

There we all were, safe on that wonderful boat

Looked on the mountain, watched the water rise

What do you think we saw much to our surprise 

There were the unicorns still trying to play

That's why you won't see them to this very day

I think that's enough story it's time to go in

I'll tell you some more when you visit me again
