In the beginning there was nothingness and God but waved his hand /
And from the endless void there sprang the beauty of the land /

And high above the canyon walls the diamond stars were new /
And breezes blew from nothingness and herbs and grasses grew

And silent creatures roamed the Earth and multiplied their kind /
And man was but a molecule that God had left behind.

And mountains sprang and chaos rang the overture of life /
And rivers coursed the twisted blade of natures sharpest knife

And cut beneath the rolling dales a gateway to the sea /
While tidal waves and mighty gales were heard in symphony

And sunshine fell upon the waves and warmed the virgin land /
And from the mud a drop of blood was left upon the sand.

Genesis (In The Beginning) by Don McLean
