Here they come, talkin' down on me

I get the funniest looks 'cause I said I don't believe

They say we were monkeys

They think they're saying something profound

But where's their missing link at? There weren't any bodies found



They built a man from a hog's tooth-They called a lie the truth

And any time they get busted- They sell you something new

They say we were monkeys

I think that they've been monkeyin' around

Cause they're too busy changin' their books and their studies 'round

They're just tryin' to defend it- they got a lot to re-explain

Where they've done excavation, they keep uncoverin' mistakes



Any time or any where- just look over the boulders

you'll see that man's been there

They say we were monkeys

I think their heads are stuck in the ground

Cause they're too busy diggin' and putting the Bible down



(spoken:) Java Man was the skull of a gibbon

Nebraska Man was the tooth of a pig and

the Pitdown Man was a low down sham

They built that man form an orangutang

Ramapithics wasn't complete he's a fragment of jaw and a couple of teeth

additional skeletons show us today that he isn't our relative- only an ape

Australapithicus alias Lucy the fossil of this was just bague and confusing

the wonderful knee bone they're proud to possess

was 200 feet deeper- a mile from the rest

Neanderthal Man was prob'ly deficient

in Vitamin D of it might've been rickets

but he had religion and musical instruments

fire and tools and from you he's no different



(sang:) They say we were monkeys

But people came from dust in the ground

But they're too busy thinkin' to look into what we've found

They're just kinda pretending, b
