We
Are built of modules combined in a planned out way
Each new piece must be told where to go
Oh

Phenotype the interface for mouse and man
Genotype the files and the subprograms

Looking at the logic in the ways that we grow

Calculating in a network labyrinthal
Where the heart and liver and the hands and feet go
Evo-Devo
Stick around for Modern Synthesis the sequel

Evolution and development amigos
Evo-Devo
Signals trigger patterns of complexity so
Switching up the switches of a signalling node
Gives a modular and simple way to evolve

This is how we go from single cells to people
Every generation and in life primeval
