Adam and Eve
Women are made of rib,and men are made of dust.
He's got a special place in the sky
for every one of us.
A tree and a serpent so tempting
A shrub of love and hate
Something red and shiny
their taste buds did dilate.
They didn't know of bad,
until the serpent slithered their way.
Teeth met succulent apple flesh.
and he, they did betray.
So now you know the story
and why we're born of sin
Makes me wonder what it would be like
if Adam and Eve listened.
It's good he has arms that are open
and a heart that's willing to forgive
the man that was made from dust
and the woman made of rib.
