He's a walkin' contradiction when he sings his verse He's got a caffeine fix addiction that could be worse And he is loved by many, he's understood in time But it's easier to love him than to try to read his mind He's a mass of words expression and toil And his temple's in the trees, in the water and the soil He's a man of evolution, he's always changing like the seasons He finds the right solution but gets lost in his own reason And he's got a ways to go, I know and he's doing what he can Sometimes this world's a lonely place for the evolution man But she's always been there for him, she's his steady ground And he'll never ever own her, it's the other way around She's [Incomprehensible] the way out of here She's the needle in his vein And he knows she's the only thing that will ever stop the pain He stands there naked in the light, giving all he's got Most folks don't understand that we're no different Than the rocks and stones to the evolution man She said, "I got a funny feelin' that I'm headed somewhere new" And there ain't no use in stealin' your sweet sweet dream from you 'Cause I know you'll find what you want if I set you free And I'll still be here if you find what you want is me 'Cause it's a long and lonely road, I know you're doing what you can But I never thought it would be so hard to love the evolution man You're an evolution man
