No Picture TOM Lead Player	#1 by TOM at Mar 18, 2006 at 9:18 PM EST
	on a Live Cd, ive heard him say instead of: "Those ignorant Indians got nothing on me. Nothing. Why? Because, it's evolution baby. Yeah, woh." " Those ignorant Indians got nothing on me. Nothing. Why? Because, I'm a republican baby." i thought that was quite funny.

No Picture C. Average	#2 by C. W. at May 17, 2006 at 8:07 AM EST
	Theres no way we can avoid it i say we just speed up the process.Were just gonna kill ourselves off anyway.Lets just kill all the animals, burn the forests, and drill out all the oil then bomb the hell out of everyone else.

No Picture Maverick Average	#3 by Maverick at Jun 18, 2006 at 9:09 PM EST
	This song is written from my understanding after seeing the video and studying its lyrics, about the careless and errogant treatment of the ever-evolving human race towards the environment and other societies. And using the excuse of technological or evolutionary advancement. For example: pollution, global warming, rape, corruption of religious institutions (I can kill 'cause in God I trust), animal cruelty , war, nukes, overpopulation, racism (burning cross), suicide (a man jumping from a skyscraper), prostitution, corporate institutions, nazzis (concentration camps, burning bibles), the Roman Empire, slaves, cloning, urban sprawl, the death penalty, political leaders (I'm a thief, I'm a liar...), collateral damage (girl stepping on a landmine), animal testing, and ultimately total annihilation of mankind resulting from a nuke. Doesn't evolution suck.

	"admire my sons, admire my clones" this is one of the best lines of the song. evolution in a natural way literally stops with the invention of "cloning". we don't produce new humans -> children anymore, we reproduce ourselves. sounds like "überconservatism" !/?

	crazy fat guy on the couch

	The evolution is a sweeping dance craze I started at my high school prom....Its kinda like the teen wolf dance but with more pizazz

No Picture Paul Wanna Be	#7 by Paul Ellefson at Feb 28, 2007 at 5:49 PM EST
	this video is very graphic

No Picture Wanna Be	#8 by ~ Milo ~ at Apr 12, 2007 at 3:15 AM EST
	I agree with the rest of the posters here. Evolution is a bitch! :)

No Picture dena Lead Player	#9 by dena didrickson at Oct 11, 2007 at 12:21 AM EST
	evolution/technology = progress? HA! anyway, I like Eddie's alt. (live) lyrics: "I'm the first mammal to wet (shit) my pants" points out how absurd we really are...
