The Man Who Evolved

There were three of us in that place
Pollard talked of rays from outer space
Of the cause of evolutionary change
Doctor John Pollard then began to explain

From outer space the cosmic rays
Hitting the Earth every night and day
Cast forth from an exploding star
The distance travelled so very far

What became of the man who evolved
The strangest tale that has ever been told
The evolution of the human race
To accelerate this with those rays from space

Fifteen minutes fifty million years
He was in the cube with his hopes and fears
I closed the door and threw the switch
The cosmic rays made him writhe and twitch

What became of the man who evolved
The strangest tale that has ever been told
The evolution of the human race
To accelerate this with those rays from space

A god like creature we then saw
With such beauty we'd not seen before
But later on just a brain
And what came next drove Dutton insane

What became of the man who evolved
The strangest tale that has ever been told
The evolution of the human race
To accelerate this with those rays from space
