"Who Do You Think You Are" lyrics

"Who Do You Think You Are"

You reach for the stars
Well who do you think you are?
You're not so different from me

Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Pay no attention to that big black obelisk
Mister proto-human homo habilis

Crack that bone, sharpen that stone
Hunt that tiger, catchin' that fire
Wanna know what's over that hill-top?
Not a lot

You reach for the stars
Well who do you think you are?
You're not so different from me, are you?
If you only knew what you're going to turn into
You'd climb back up the family tree

Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Pay no attention to that big black obelisk
Mister proto-human homo habilis

Crack that bone, sharpen that stone
Hunt that tiger, blowin' that fire
(Okay, thank you)
Stay in your red valley, even if it is a blind alley
Put down that crudely fashioned tool, and don't be a fool

You reach for the stars
Well who do you think you are?
You're not so different from me, boy!
If you only knew what you're going to turn into
You'd climb back up the family tree

Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Hey mister proto-human homo habilis
Pay no attention to that big black obelisk
Mister proto-human homo habilis
