Banned from Eden

“When we still lived in Eden back about few thousand years

The Lord spoke out His godly rules we were supposed to hear

He told us never touch or eat the fruits of apple tree

And if we did He’d then assure we surely soon should flee

The time went on; we kept the rules; we wandered all around

This world was new; we couldn’t tell what next was to be found

But then we met that little snake, beneath the apple tree

It told to eat, and so we did, and soon we’d better flee!

And we’re banned from Eden everyone!

Banned from Eden just because we had some fun!

We ate an apple, one and two, and then ate three and four

Now Lord He doesn’t want us anymore!

We blamed each others, blamed the snake – the mess too huge to see

Who should be held responsible of eating from the tree

No matter whose the fault then was; for all we got the blame

And no excuse was there for us to quickly grab and claim

And we’re banned from Eden everyone!

Banned from Eden just because we had some fun!

We ate an apple, one and two, and then ate three and four

Now Lord He doesn’t want us anymore!

Angry was the Lord and told He’d now banish us both

The snake was cursed to crawl on dust; forever to be loathed

Then He drove us out of there, now we are homeless all

I guess it was a bad thing for the reptile’s trick to fall

And we’re banned from Eden everyone!

Banned from Eden just because we had some fun!

We ate an apple, one and two, and then ate three and four

Now Lord He doesn’t want us anymore!

Me, my wife and snake now sitting outside Eden’s gate

Behind us flaming sword that stays there keeping us away

There’s nothing we could do now; so we shrugged and left the place

And better would be nevermore to show the Lord our face

And we’re banned from Eden everyone!

Banned from Eden just because we had some fun!

We ate an apple, one and two, and then ate three and four

Now Lord He doesn’t want us anymore!

So now we all sit next to road and think what we did wrong

And finally it seems like we again now get along

Now words of blame were spoken – but to Him, them every one

By God, it was an apple tree! What you’d with it have done?

And we’re banned from Eden everyone!

Banned from Eden just because we had some fun!

We ate an apple, one and two, and then ate three and four

Now Lord He doesn’t want us anymore!”
