Monkey To Man

[00:00:11] A long time ago our point of view

[00:00:18] Was broadcast by Mr Bartholomew

[00:00:25] Now the world is full of sorrow and pain

[00:00:32] It's time for us to speak up again

[00:00:39] You're slack and sorry such an arrogant brood

[00:00:46] The only purpose you serve is to bring us our food

[00:00:54] We sit here staring at your pomp and pout

[00:00:58] Outside the bars we use for keeping you out

[00:01:01] You've taken everything that you wanted

[00:01:05] Broke it up and plundered it and hunted

[00:01:08] Ever since we said it

[00:01:10] You went and took the credit

[00:01:12] It's been headed this way

[00:01:13] Since the world began

[00:01:15] When a vicious creature took the jump

[00:01:18] From monkey to man

[00:01:22] Monkey to man

[00:01:26] Monkey to man

[00:01:29] Yeah yeah yeah

[00:01:34] Every time that man struggles and fails

[00:01:41] He makes up some kind of fairytales

[00:01:48] After all of the misery that he has caused

[00:01:51] He denies he's descended from the dinosaurs

[00:01:55] Points up to heaven with cathedral spires

[00:01:58] All the time indulging in his base desires

[00:02:02] Ever since we said it

[00:02:04] He went and took the credit

[00:02:06] It's been headed this way

[00:02:07] Since the world began

[00:02:09] When a vicious creature took the jump

[00:02:12] From monkey to man

[00:02:16] Monkey to man

[00:02:20] Monkey to man

[00:02:23] Monkey to man

[00:02:27] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

[00:02:32] Big and useless as he has become

[00:02:35] With his crying statues and his flying bomb

[00:02:39] Goes 'round acting like the chosen one

[00:02:42] Excuse us if we treat him like our idiot cousin

[00:02:46] He hangs up flowers and bells and rhymes

[00:02:53] Hoping to Hell someone's forgiven his crimes

[00:03:01] Fills up the air with his pride and praise

[00:03:04] He's big disgrace to our beastly ways

[00:03:07] In the fashionable nightclubs and finer precincts

[00:03:11] Man uses words to dress up his vile instincts

[00:03:15] Ever since we said it

[00:03:17] He went and took the credit

[00:03:18] It's been headed this way

[00:03:20] Since the world began

[00:03:22] When a vicious creature took the jump

[00:03:25] From monkey to man

[00:03:28] Monkey to man

[00:03:32] Monkey to man

[00:03:36] Monkey to man

[00:03:39] Monkey to man

[00:03:43] Monkey to man

[00:03:46] Monkey to man

[00:03:50] Monkey to man

[00:03:53] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

[00:04:17] A long time ago our point of view
