the undercover hippy – monkey suit lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m just a monkey with a big++rs+ brain
caught in a battle with my dna
over control of the decisions i take, provisions i make, to honour the behaviour i wanna display
i’m sick of thinking with my d+ck all the time
and always trying to protect what’s mine
i’ve got a feeling that there’s more to life than replicating my genes, and then protecting the family line
[verse 2]
’cause this mind of mine has now developed to the point where i’m aware of my instinctive reactions in time
that i can choose to change and rearrange the way that my mainframe considers how to play the game
but if i’m playing the game for the fame and success, i’m only gonna wind up stressed and never give it my best
because i’m too busy trying to get my name in the press and get the girls undressed
[chorus]
what does it mean to be a human being?
tell me is it really no more than it seems?
am i really no more than the sum of my genes?
won’t somebody tell me please
because i’ve really got to know, so i can see which way to go
i’m feeling like i’m losing my control
[verse 3]
a little ego in a monkey suit
barely moved on from the chunky soup
where the competition began
back when being a man was just a possibility contained in the inorganic multitude
but now we’re moving on, and social evolution is the movie song that sets the next scene
where we get to dream what it means to be a human being, and if you disagree prove me wrong
[verse 4]
because for way too long we’ve been living a lie
given white lies since you was knee high
over simplified replies to your / “who am i? what am i? where am i? why?”, but
n0body knows any more than you do so
don’t ask n0body what it means to be you ’cause
you are unique, yes a freak of nature
made to break from fate + be your own creator ’cause
[bridge]
you got your own mind
and you can use it any way you like (no oh)
you got your own life
and you can lose it any time…
[chorus]
what does it mean to be a human being?
tell me is it really no more than it seems?
am i really no more than the sum of my genes?
won’t somebody tell me please
because i’ve really got to know, so i can see which way to go
i’m feeling like i’m losing my control (oh oh oh)
[instrumental]
[verse 5]
so what does it mean?
like really at the fundamental level of being
what is the plot of this incredible scene?
’cause i’ve been looking for the truth since i was fifteen
big themes for a kid with big dreams
[verse 6]
but the battle of genes is old hat now
today the tussle of ideas is the battle ground
people giving us our dreams from the top down
next generation of teens to get locked down + what now?
you wanna play this game? drop this name? looking up at people ’cause they got this fame?
you wanna take a better look at yourself mate
before you suffocate on your self hate
’cause fear is a lead weight: the sooner you lose it the quicker you can elevate your head+state, vacate the dead weight
try to figure out a way of liberating your own fate before it’s too late
[chorus x2]
now what does it mean to be a human being?
tell me is it really no more than it seems?
am i really no more than the sum of my genes?
won’t somebody tell me please
because i’ve really got to know, so i can see which way to go
i’m feeling like i’m losing my control
what does it mean to be a human being?
tell me is it really no more than it seems?
am i really no more than the sum of my genes?
won’t somebody tell me please
because i’ve really got to know, so i can see which way to go
i’m feeling like i’m losing my control (oh)
