- Charlie Darwin sailed a ship far across the sea.
And he came to the Galapagos Islands, floating free.
He saw finches here, and a tortoise there,
Iguanas on the rocks, and he put them in a box.
Charlie Darwin sailed a ship far across the sea.
- He found fourteen species of finches living there,
And they were eating all the seeds. Each one had its fare.
Eating big seeds here, eating small seeds there,
Here a bug, there a nut, ev’ry kind of beak size.
He found fourteen species of finches living there.
- “Origin of Species” was Charlie’s famous book
In which he said that all of us different do look.
So, our genes from mom and our genes from dad
We pass on to our young through the generations.
“Origin of Species” was Charlie’s famous book.
- But, these genes do sometimes change better or for worse,
So lack of food or mate or home often is a curse.
Then the fit survive and they stay alive,
Pass their genes to their young: natural selection.
But, these genes do sometimes change better or for worse.
