	Story Behind the Song My brother wrote this poem and gave it to me in order to make it into a song. Mitochondrial DNA, unlike nuclear DNA, is only passed along from the mother's side. Remarkable similarities of mitochondrial DNA between all human beings points to a common mother and an African origin. Among other things, this theory certainly blows away any justification for racism. Lyrics Good doctors looked into our bones (Mitochondrion, mitochondrion) Down to our maternal genes All language, home or means We have one mother, we have one mother All humans hold the truth Good doctors dug into the earth (In Africa, in Africa) They found Eden's deep riff valley (In Afica, in Africa) It's the place of mankind's birth Don't take a good doctor, just feel it in your bones Our mother glowed like rosewood Not bleached Athena's stones If God made bronze Eve in His image (The face of God, the face of God) Then some may be in for quite a shock When we arrive at God's gate and knock Wallace: vocals, acoustic and electric rhythm gutars, mandolin. Dan: bass. Kirk: drums. Ray: timbales.
