Yes, the music is great but a little too loud.

In a world where opposable thumbs reside,
A wondrous gift in our human stride,
The thumb opposing the forefinger's might,
Unveiling a prowess that's pure delight.

With precision and grace, a grip so fine,
A power bestowed, a touch so divine,
Manipulating objects with such control,
A symphony of motion, an artistic stroll.

Through ages past, this adaptation grew,
Enabling tools and creations anew,
Writing, painting, instruments we play,
Crafting our dreams in a skillful display.

The thumb and brain, a dance they shared,
Intelligence blossomed, a destiny dared,
From humble beginnings to grand pursuits,
The opposable thumb, where brilliance takes root.

So let us honor this miraculous feat,
The thumb's opposition, a triumph complete,
For in this union, a story unfolds,
Of human potential that forever molds.
