Lyrics for Genetic Engineering

Efficient, logical, effective, and practical Using all resources to the best of our ability Changing, designing, adapting our mentalities Improving our abilities for a better way of life Babies Mother Hospital Scissors Creature Judgement Butcher Engineer These are the little children The future in our hands When all God's children on this Earth Inherit all our plans These are the lies they tell us But this is the only way When all God's children on the Earth Will ever more be saved Babies Mother Hospital Scissors Creature Judgement Butcher Engineer Babies Mother Hospital Scissors Creature Judgement Butcher Engineer These are the little children The future's in their hands When all God's children on this Earth Inherit all our plans These are the lies they tell us The future's good as sold In all the things we say and do We really must be bold
