Barenaked Ladies The history of everything Lyrics

Our whole universe was in a hot dense state
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started

Wait!

The earth began to cool
The autotrophs began to drool
Neanderthals developed tools
We built a wall
We built the pyramids
Math, science, history
Unraveling the mystery
That all started with the Big Bang
Bang!

Since the dawn of man is really not that long
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song
A fraction of a second and the elements were made
The bipeds stood up straight
The dinosaurs all met their fate
They tried to leap but they were late
And they all died
They froze their a__es off

The oceans and Pangea
See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya
Set in motion by the same Big Bang

It all started with the big Bang!

It's expanding ever outward, but one day
It will cause the stars to go the other way
Collapsing ever inward,
We won't be here,
It won't be heard
Our best and brightest figure that it'll make an even bigger Bang

Austrelopithicus would really have been sick of us
Debating how we're here
They're catching deer
We're catching viruses

Religion or astronomy
Descartes, Deuteronomy
It all started with the Big Bang
Music and mythology
Einstein and astrology
It all started with the big bang
It all started with the big
Bang!
