	Lyrics Dr. Leroy Applebaum derived his master plan To pass along his freakish gift and populate a clan Of superhuman capacity to think and to create And speed along man's progress to an elevated state His body normal size at birth, though three months past date due But for his head, his doctors said, which doubled in the womb His brain was equally immense, his aptitude so vast A Nobel Prize was in his hands 'fore puberty had passed Life among the uninformed had led him down the road Of extreme research studies and experiments untold Though fact would prove his findings would someday change the world Leroy's theories so advanced, his colleagues heads would swirl He took the profits from his many medical breakthroughs To build himself a private lab no distraction could come to He stocked his cave with food supply to last him several years And closed himself off from the world with a final turn of gears He focused on the petri dish for growth to first begin Developing reproductive cells from slices of his skin It took some time to see progress of Leroy's future ranks In the time it took to grow he built amniotic tanks Once the eggs had fertilized to an appropriate size Leroy planted each in synthetic wombs to start their lives He birthed them after twelve months and was pleased with his success Their brains equaled his at birth, though all looked different, more or less CHORUS: It's a simple case of mutated evolution Symptoms of disease and inferior complexion Insurance claims and vulgar names an everyday affair Hazards of occupation living in a research lair Over the next several weeks the doctor finalized his scheme And one by one took infants to adoption agencies He planted these seeds of wisdom wide, from coast to other coast To sit back and watch his children grow, and who would do the most Tracking progress without fail, meticulously precise He learned of each one's reproduction and the spread of his device In the end Leroy was right, his spawn rose to lead the world His give to human progress equally anonymous and bold CHORUS x2
