Us, tenants of Eden,
Were thrown out for insubordination
By the Master of the Garden.
Were thrown out for insubordination
By the Master of the Garden.
Having listened to the serpent,
We made ourselves free of fences,
And then we could tell the Good from evil.
The Master Gardener had lied though.
It was not a desert, off Eden's walls,
And flowers did grow there, alike.
It was not a desert, off Eden's walls,
And flowers did grow there, alike.
We just found out that species were many,
And saw all the possibilities, over the skyline.
And then, joyfully, we farmed the Flowers of evil.
