Tape Player said: The Smartest Monkeys, by XTC,
from Nonsuch.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 evidence is
all around
Our brains are bigger, this we've found ...
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 ...
The
evolution's plain to see
We're the dominant of the species ...
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...
