they say Eve gave Adam the apple

Adam didnt want it at all

but though Adam was fussy that old Eve was a hussy

she talked him right into the fall



they say Eve gave Adam the apple

the poor man didnt know what for

but as soon as he gave in to her original sin

the Big Boss kicked them out the door



chorus:

o-oh Eve, you got a bum rap, sister

Eve, I think youve been framed

whoever wrote the Bible should be sued for libel

cause since then all your daughters

have been taking the blame



they say wed still be in the garden of Eden

having picnics if it werent for Eve

at least thats what the Pope and the Ayatollah

and guys like that would have you believe



oh but lets take a look at what happened

after paradise was no more

Eve invented agriculture and art

Adam invented war...



...and nuclear technology to threaten our ecology

and sneaky male theology to dictate our biology

I think Adam and his buddies owe us all a big apology



chorus



they say Eve gave Adam the apple

now pardon me if I sound crude

but no matter who they say seduced who that day

Eve was the one who got screwed



chorus



were either whores or witches, madonnas or bitches

Eve, I think weve been framed

enough of this invective, lets have some perspective

its been ten thousand years and were still taking the blame

but Eve weve had enough and things are starting to change

oh Eve were gonna clear your name
