A man named Darwin had a revelation   He said all life evolved from the confusion   He had a theory: He made some people nervouse   When he came to the embarrassing conclusion      We come from from monkeys, We're not so special   We've only got a little extra DNA   The chimpanzees are very close to us   Australopithecus? He's not so far away.      We come from monkeys, swinging' the the trees   A little bit of monkey inside you and me   Monkey in the middle, monkey on your back   It's a fundamental problem, but a scientific fact.   We come from monkeys      The feeble minded said Creation was the answer   They got upset, their nose got out of joint.   They say we're missing the monkey in the middle   They're picking nits, it kinda proves the point.      You're not so hairy, you haven't got a tail   You're not adapted for living in a tree   But if you care to count up all your chromosomes   You're ninety eight point four percent a chimpanzee      We come from monkeys, swinging' the the trees   A little bit of monkey inside you and me   Monkey in the middle, monkey on your back   It's a fundamental problem, but a scientific fact.   We come from monkeys      Double helix monkey bars, feel the primal beat   Six million years we've been walking on our feet   A barrel full of monkeys, swinging from the family tree      We don't wanna start a social revolution   We just wanna talk about some monkey evolution   But the knuckle-draggin' stool-flingin' fools just   Don't wanna see      We come from monkeys      I you can't handle the thought of evolution   You might just call it intelligent design   But if the Universe keeps on evolving   Then maybe you should just evolve a bigger mind      We come from monkeys, swinging' the the trees   A little bit of monkey inside you and me   Monkey in the middle, monkey on your back   It's a fundamental problem, but a scientific fact.   We come from monkeys      Monkey see, monkey do   Monkey see, monkey do   Monkey see, monkey do   Monkey me, monkey you   Let's all face it   It's all true, we come from monkeys
