(Emily Kaitz)My Daddy was a man of lettersMy Mama was a head of stateAnd when they got their chromosomes togetherThey gave me all of their recessive traitsI'm an embarrassment to evolutionMy disposition is unstable and cruelMy blood's a catastrophic blend'Cause I'm from the shallow end of the gene poolMy IQ is a negative numberI've got a sense of humor no one can standAnd my development was seriously encumberedBy playing music with the Lounge Lizards bandI'm a social director's nightmareAt dinner parties I just babble and droolIt's not easy making friendsWhen you're from the shallow end of the gene poolChorus:I'm from the shallow end of the gene poolMy x-rays make the doctors laughWhen they tried to chart my EEG wavesWell I wasn't even on the graphBiological research is boomingThey're making breakthroughs like you wouldn't believeThey say genetic engineering in humansWill someday soon be a realityI'm gonna get me a DNA transplantThey're gonna rearrange my moleculesSome natural laws will have to bendTo get me from the shallow end of the gene pool
