This sermon I'm going to preach, Some states now forbid one to teach. I won't let those trog- lodytes stifle old Ogg, They'll stand up and piss on free speech.

(Urinal of the bigots.)

Charles Darwin climbed on to The Beagle, (In those days that wasn't illegal,) To welcome him there Came a drop from the air: "Oh, Bugger!" he said, "Damn that seagull.

(Arrival of the shittiest.)

The next day they had lifeboat drill; Leapt over the side with a will. But Charles missed the boat, Hauled out by his coat, He emerged, with his mouth full of krill.

(Survival of the wettest.)

Their passage was terribly slow, And rations were getting quite low; While sailing off Riga They were far too meagre, And no-one had spare flesh to show.

(Survival of the fattest.)

The crew got so desperate and died, Committing a mass suicide, Except for one bloke, Who, like Charles, liked a joke, But the sad ones jumped over the side.

(Survival of the wittiest?)

By this time they'd reached the Galapagos, Whereon Charles and buddy did clap-agos, "I spy turtle soup," Cries Charles, "Come on group!" The first one there gets every scrap-agos.

(Survival of the fittest!)

Those governing us are very tedious, Their arguments mostly egregious, They claim they're so wise, While telling such lies... The origin, thus, of the specious.
