TURNING BACK THE PAGES

                                                                                                   

We are turning back the pages in the U  S  A
The Age of Unenlightment is where we want to stay.
Now the teachers in our schools may not corrupt our youth
The Biblical Old Testament contains the only truth.
That creatures all were made at once six thousand years ago,
The mammoth and the squirrel, the dinosaur and doe,
As well as all the insects, the scorpions and spiders,
The algae and bacteria and things that live inside us.

We are turning back the pages
To the Medieval ages,
To count the angels on a pin,
Say Darwin has the Devil’s grin,
To study fossils is a sin.
We are turning back the pages.

We are turning back the pages in the U S A.
We know mankind and trilobites appeared within one day.
The grasses and the mushrooms, the ferns and every flower
Appeared together on this earth within the selfsame hour.
There was no Evolution from the small plants to the large.
The mass of so called evidence is under Satan’s charge.
If lecturers do not tell students this is what occurred
We have them all arrested – heresy’s the word

We are turning back the pages                               
To the Medieval ages,
To count the angels on a pin,
Say Darwin has the Devil’s grin,
To study fossils is a sin.

We are turning back the pages in the U S A.
Unbelievers and the sceptics will no longer get their way.
We will close down all the colleges that do not share our views
And findings of new fossils will not be in the news.
But why stop there, we ask ourselves, when we should aim much higher.
All books on Evolution should be on the funeral pyre.
We ought to raid the libraries, your private homes and schools
Because these works of Satan should not be read by fools

In spite of scientists’ rages

By slow and steady stages

We are turning back the pages
To the Medieval ages,
To count the angels on a pin,
Say Darwin has the Devil’s grin,
 To study fossils is a sin.
Throw Richard Dawkins in the bin
We are turning back the pages.
