Kennewick Man



Kennewick Man, Kennewick Man
Doing the things that fossils can
Where's he from, what does it mean?
Kennewick Man

Is he Native, or is he a Norse?
Is he Asian, did he worship a horse?
People wanting to take it by force
Angry discourse, Kennewick Man

Scientist man, scientist man
Scientist examines Kennewick Man
Fight for ownership begins
Scientist man

First Nations man, First Nations man
Wants to bury him in sacred land
DNA says he's from Japan
Poor First Nations man

He's got Ainu face and Ainu hands,
migrated far across the land
Time preserved him in its sands
Ainu man

Asa-Man, Asa-Man
Making spaceships out of frying pans
Wants to prove fossil's Aryan
Asa-Man

Do his theories hold weight or is he just crazed?
Can anyone figure out his mental maze?
Why do we listen to Asa-man?
Pseudoscience man, Asa-man.

Scientist man, scientist man
Scientist examines Kennewick Man
DNA says he's from Japan
Scientist man
