"We Are Monkeys" lyrics

"We Are Monkeys"

People think they're funny when they have a good wit
Others think they're gorgeous but inside they feel shit
Many think they're brainy but they haven't a clue
And I think I'm clever 'cause I'm singing this to you

We are wrong, we are wrong, we are all so, so wrong, we are monkeys
We are false, we're untrue, we should be in the zoo with our uncles
And if you don't believe, go and climb up a tree and you'll love it
You're a fool to believe any more, so believe you're a monkey

Now all the clever monkeys telling us what to do
Telling us to stay in line and join the monkey queue
Thinking that they're special 'cause they went to private zoo
One day soon they're gonna end up in a monkey stew

They are wrong, they are wrong, they are all so, so wrong, they are monkeys
They are false, they're untrue, they should be in the zoo with their uncles
And if you don't believe, go and climb up a tree and you'll love it
You're a fool to believe any more so believe you're a monkey

We are wrong, we are wrong, we are all so, so wrong, we are monkeys
We are false, we're untrue, we should be in the zoo with our uncles
And if you don't believe, go and climb up a tree and you'll love it
You're a fool to believe any more, so believe you're a monkey
You're a fool to believe any more, so believe you're a monkey
You're a fool to believe any more, so believe you're a monkey
