XTC - The Smartest Monkeys lyrics

rate me

Well man created the cardboard box to sleep in it

And man converted the newspaper to a blanket

Well you have to admit that he's come a long way

Since swinging about in the trees

We're the smartest monkeys

The smartest monkeys

The evidence is all around

Our brains are bigger

This we've found

The smartest monkeys

Well man discovered the park bench can make a transition

And the rubbish tip makes a valid form of nutrition

With discoveries like these

Civilisation agrees

To give itself a pat on the back

We're the smartest monkeys

The evolution's plain to see

We're the dominant of the species

The smartest monkeys

We brought the caveman from the stoneage

To the subways of the modern world

Quick call the Guinness Book of Records

Well you have to admit...

We're the smartest monkeys...
