Adam and Eve

from Telling tales by Caroline Blundell

/

lyrics

Now a long time ago in the garden of Eden, Adam and Eve had it good
But they didn't know how good it was, they didn't have to work or go to school
They could do as they liked as long as they knew
Their Father in Heaven had one simple rule

Chorus:
Don't eat the apples from the Tree of Knowledge, or everything will change
You're still too young to understand, but when you get older I'll explain
Follow this rule, that's all I ask, or your life in Paradise it won't last
Hey, hey, MMM nana na, listen to what I say

Now did I tell you there was somebody else who was always hanging around?
It was a little serpent with only one eye,
He didn't do much except stare at the ground
Wherever Adam went, he went too, and he didn't care about their Father's rule

Chorus

Now as they got older they hit their teens, and the snake it got bigger too
And as they lay in the night he would whisper to Eve about some things that they could do
He'd say come on baby let's play games
I know a good one called "Roll-in-the-Hay"

Chorus

What's all the fuss about the Tree of Knowledge, there's nothing wrong with change
You're so pretty, come on baby, it's time you started to act your age
Your Heavenly Father is overprotective,
Watching every move like a damn detective,
Hey hey MMM nana na, listen to what I say

So Eve took a bite and Adam did too, and the rest is history
There was a clap of thunder and a flash of light
They saw they were naked, it was clearly revealed
They grabbed some leave to try and cover it all, but the one eyed snake was standing tall
So their Heavenly Father drove them out of Eden in His Heavenly 4x4
