Once upon a time,
For the Lord the skies they parted;
So a few must die
To bring us back to where we started.
CHORUS:
Two at a time,
Two at a time,
Two at a time,
Two at a time,
Do what you're told.
Each and every kind were gathered up,
This tiny boat - the future of the world.
For those that drowned, it made no sense;
They should have known, because we told them so.
CHORUS
I could see the rains a-comin'
To wash away the filth and vermin
Hand-in-hand, we'll watch them runnin'
Ohh...
Now it's summertime....
Long ago the skies they parted;
So a few have died,
To bring us back to where we started.
