Amphioxus lyrics

Send "Amphioxus" Ringtone to your Cell Amphioxus by Sam Hinton A fish-like thing appeared among the annelids one day. It hadn`t any parapods nor cetae to display. It hadn`t any lungs, nor jaws, nor ventral nervous cord, But it had a lot of gill slits and it had a notochord. Chorus: It`s a long way from Amphioxus. It`s a long way to us. It`s a long way from Amphioxus to the meanest human cuss. Well, it`s goodbye to fins and gill slits, and welcome, lungs and hair! It`s a long, long way from Amphioxus, but we all came from there. He wasn`t much to look at and he scarce knew how to swim, And Nereus was very sure he hadn`t come from him. The mollusks wouldn`t own it and the arthropods got sore, So the poor thing had to burrow in the sand along the shore. (chorus) He burrowed in the sand before a crab could nip his tail, And he said `Gill slits and miotomes are all to no avail. I`ve grown a metapleural fold and sport an aural hood, But all these fine new characters don`t do me any good. (chorus) He sulked awhile down in the sand without a lot of pep, Then he stiffened up his notochord and said, `I`ll beat `em yet! Let `em laugh and show their ignorance. I don`t mind their jeers. Just wait until they see me in hundred million years. (chorus) My notochord shall change into a chain of vertebrae And as fins my metapleural folds shall agitate the sea. My tiny ventral nervous cord will be a mighty brain And the vertebrates shall dominate the animal domain.
