Musical Ecological Niches
Well the sparrow ran the zebra down and ripped open its throat
As gazelles were stalked by roaming prides of Serengeti goats
And schools of spiders swam upstream to spawn in underwater webs
And flocks of trees soared south for winter, making northern treelines ebb
What could put sperm whales in caves, and poison dart frogs in the sky?
Some say God is angry, but we don't have time for hows and whys
We've got more pressing problems now than photosynthesizing vultures
Ebola's going global; it's developed wheels and agriculture
