Discover the story of the song > Do the Evolution – Pearl Jam

The protagonist is talking about how he is a man and wears pants, and how he is okay with his desires and can even kill for his beliefs. He talks about how he buys stocks on the day of a crash and behaves like a herd animal, flattening hills as he pleases. He believes in evolution and claims this land and its resources as his own. He even admits to being a liar and a thief, and sings in a church choir. He brags about his clone and his plans to advance further, predicting that the year 2010 will see great destruction. He encourages others to join him in doing the evolution.
