《The Monkey》歌词

[00:00:10] a long time ago, our point of view

[00:00:17] was broadcast by mr. bartholomew

[00:00:24] and now the world is full of sorrow and pain

[00:00:31] and it's time for us to speak up again

[00:00:38] you're slack and sorry

[00:00:40] such an arrogant brood

[00:00:45] the only purpose you serve is to bring us our food

[00:00:53] we sit here staring at your pomp and pout

[00:00:57] outside the bars we use for keeping you out

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

[00:01:04] broke it up and plundered it and hunted

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

[00:01:09] you went and took the credit

[00:01:11] it's been headed this way since the world began

[00:01:15] when a vicious creature took the jump from monkey to man

[00:01:21] monkey to man

[00:01:33] every time man struggles and fails

[00:01:39] he makes up some kind of fairytales

[00:01:47] after all of the misery that he has caused

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

[00:01:54] 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

[00:02:03] he went and took the credit

[00:02:05] it's been headed this way since the world began

[00:02:09] when a vicious creature took the jump from monkey to man

[00:02:15] monkey to man

[00:02:31] big and useless as he has become

[00:02:34] with his crying statues and his flying bomb

[00:02:38] goes 'round acting like the chosen one

[00:02:41] excuse us if we treat him like our idiot cousin

[00:02:45] he hangs up flowers and bells and rhymes

[00:02:52] hoping to hell someone's forgiven his crimes

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

[00:03:03] he's a big disgrace to our beastly ways

[00:03:06] in the fashionable nightclubs and finer precincts

[00:03:10] man uses words to dress up his vile instincts

[00:03:14] ever since we said it

[00:03:16] he went and took the credit

[00:03:17] it's been headed this way since the world began

[00:03:21] when a vicious creature took the jump from monkey to man
