A long time ago, our point of view Was broadcast by Mr. Bartholomew Now the world is full of sorrow and pain It's time for us to speak up againYou're slack and sorry such an arrogant brood The only purpose you serve is to bring us our food We sit here staring at your pomp and pout Outside the bars we use for keeping you outYou've taken everything that you wanted Broke it up and plundered it and hunted Ever since we said it You went and took the creditIt's been headed this way Since the world began When a vicious creature took the jump From monkey to manMonkey to man Monkey to man Yeah yeah yeahEvery time that man struggles and fails He makes up some kind of fairytales After all of the misery that he has caused He denies he's descended from the dinosaursPoints up to heaven with cathedral spires All the time indulging in his base desires Ever since we said it He went and took the creditIt's been headed this way Since the world began When a vicious creature took the jump From monkey to manMonkey to man Monkey to man Monkey to man Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahBig and useless as he has become With his crying statues and his flying bomb Goes 'round acting like the chosen one Excuse us if we treat him like our idiot cousinHe hangs up flowers and bells and rhymes Hoping to Hell someone's forgiven his crimes Fills up the air with his pride and praise He's big disgrace to our beastly waysIn the fashionable nightclubs and finer precincts Man uses words to dress up his vile instincts Ever since we said it He went and took the creditIt's been headed this way Since the world began When a vicious creature took the jump From monkey to manMonkey to man Monkey to man Monkey to manMonkey to man Monkey to man Monkey to man Monkey to man Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahA long time ago, our point of view
