Not a Believer in Adam E

#VERSE
Eve took a bite of the brownie
That Adam handed to her
They were both in college
And it got them both high
He said, “Let’s do this every night”
She said, "I’m not so sure”
#VERSE
Eve said, “I want a man with ambition”
He said, “Babe, I’ll give you the world”
He was running for Senator
When they turned thirty-one
They were married, big house
And twin baby girls
#PRE-CHORUS
And his slogan looked great
On all his ads
It said, “Believe in Adam
Man of God—the World’s Dad”
#VERSE
Crowds lined up at his rallies
Eve attended but wasn’t too thrilled
Every facet of life was all about him
But what he promised her—never fulfilled
#PRE-CHORUS
And he stood on stage
Touting great things he’d do
But Eve just yawned
’Cause she already knew
#CHORUS
She was…
Not a believer in Adam
Although she was married to the man
Eve dreamed of the day she could get away
And that was precisely her plan
She knew she was a butterfly
And he was the snake in the tree
She was not a believer in Adam
And her disbelief changed history
#VERSE
The primary vote
Was a piece of cake
Like daily pieces of brownies
He chomped for a lift
The election was grueling
But he sailed right through
Told Eve living in D.C
Would be like a gift
#PRE-CHORUS
But Eve knew she’d miss
Her garden back home
And that tempting neighbor Brad
Who’d bring Missy a bone
#CHORUS
But she was…
Not a believer in Adam
Although she was married to the man
Eve dreamed of the day she could get away
And that was precisely her plan
She knew she was a butterfly
And he was the snake in the tree
She was not a believer in Adam
And her disbelief changed history
#BRIDGE
Adam ran for President
The first chance he got
The twins now in college
And Eve’s energy shot
So many cutesy interviews
Pushed the angle of “Adam and Eve”
All the Biblical cheerleading
Made her want to heave
#INSTRUMENTAL
#VERSE
But the shit hit the fan
On “Good Morning U.S.A.”
Adam forced two brownies down her
In the limo on the way
Eve’s tongue waved like a flag
Revealed the hypocrite he was
How his dream was having power
And how he always had a buzz
#PRE-CHORUS
She spilled details of her distress
His gaslight lies that really hurt
Honesty capsized his campaign
Left him swimming for safety in his Armani shirt
#CHORUS
She was…
Not a believer in Adam
And he never really loved Eve
He dreamed of lining his pockets as President
Planned to screw the nation he promised to lead
Like the serpent in the garden
His heart brimmed with deceit
Thought he was smartest in the room
But he was just a loser with brownies to eat
#OUTRO
And now a new tale of Adam and Eve
Is written on a page of history
How a brave but patient butterfly
Killed the evil snake in the tree
