The Sons Of Robert Mitchum – Darwin’s Nightmare Lyrics

Darwin’s nightmare came to town, and he’s gonna take
Care of us all
Gave us the word on how it is, and introduced us to the
Fall
As he leered with myopic, blood soaked eyes and told us
We were free
He said “this world has a plan, now do what I say or
I’ll nail you to the Butcher’s tree”
Another Nightmare makes it's way through history

He said “Once upon a time I was Romulus, but today I'm
Gonna be like Cain
I'm gonna crash right through your peace and love, just
To see what I can gain”
And though my momma was tough, she had no choice, she
Was just 16
When they pillaged the homestead and raped them all,
Just to keep them keen
Another Nightmare makes it's way down from your family
Tree

He dropped a predator that perched in the land locked
Lake, ‘cause he thought it might look good
It killed most of the others with no regard, like it's
Program said it should
Said “ I've seen off so many Alpha males, you’re gonna
Want to run for cover
Or I’ll do you in, this rarefied air, just like I did
Your brother”
Another Nightmare makes it's way down from your family
Tree

Virgins pleaded for humanity, not knowing what he could
Show them
As they hid their shame with sullied hands, he drank
From a Jeroboam
But when he bathed his fingers in the water clear, from
The part that was muddy
The predator fish, it caught him by the throat and
Didn’t stop ‘till the pool was bloody
Another Nightmare makes it's way down from your family
Tree

The truly hungry will eat most things; some even eat
The one that they suckled on
Some don’t need fed but will rip that flesh and taste
It just for fun
And it’s hard to know whose fault it is, is it God or
Man or Science
But if you feel no guilt for what you've done, you may
Be hanging on your own reliance
Another Nightmare makes it's way down from your family
Tree
Another Nightmare makes it's way through history
