Monkey Business

Another cat amongst the pigeons

Another spanner in the scheme of things

I don't know why it shakes them up so much

They're so out of touch with me.

It isn't easy finding something new

The bible bashers beat you black and blue

Fire and brimstone raining down on you

But you know it's true, they know what they can do.

Monkey business, mankind

I've got a theory that will blow your mind

Monkey business, you'll see

I got you swinging from swinging from tree to tree

I'm never sure about what they want

They put their collars on back to front

They got their answers and they don't like mine

But I'm only trying to help.

They say I should be full of shame and dread

They point to Genesis and shake their head

They don't know what it is they makes them tick

But I've news for them and it's not so romantic.

Monkey business, mankind

I've got a theory that will blow your mind

Monkey business, you'll see

I've got you swinging from tree to tree.

Monkey business, mankind

I've got a theory that will blow your mind

Monkey business, you'll see

You got an ape in your family tree.

We don't want monkey business

We don't want monkey business

Monkey business, mankind

I've got a theory that will blow your mind

Monkey business, you'll see

You've got an ape in your family tree
