In the beginning, didn’t worry about the rent
Didn’t worry about the dollars that your girlfriend spent
You just wandered around the forest, eating nuts and that And waiting to get devoured by some jungle cat

You see a monkey on the TV and you think that it’s bizarre
You’re just a four foot monkey that got a bit too smart

A monkey had an idea and he turned it into beer
Another thought of fire and another of a spear
Yeah, we are all superior to the guys left in the trees
Who didn’t learn to clean a pool or rake up fallen leaves

You see a monkey in the zoo and you make faces through the bars
You’re just a four foot monkey that learned to drive a car


Someday we’ll build a spaceship to visit other worlds
Or the perfect scented potion to make your straight hair curl

You see a monkey on the TV doing tricks just like a jerk
You’re just a four foot monkey that wears a shirt to work

We’re all, monkeys that got too smart
