Eyedea, Abilities - Man vs. Ape lyrics
[Eyedea, Abilities - Man vs. Ape lyrics]
Move! There’s no telling what I'ma do
I'm eighty-thousand years of natural
Selection comin through you ain't got as
Much aggression, possessions, weapons
I'll be damned if I get
Outdone by the next man
If your beliefs are different than mine
Then we gonna fight
Who needs peace when you can
Profit from being right?
I hold picket signs outside
Abortion clinic doors
Take what I want with force
And my God could kill yours
Involved with a species evolving so slowly
Genetically infantile, violent and holy
We think we're so smart but
There's not much to know
Caveman is still alive behind
Those robot eyes
Fully controlled by ten thousand
Year old instincts hands on the war button
Flinch and your world's extinct
This is technology for the barbarian
I see the future: the past
We'll be there again
Remember, the atom bomb came from
The same place as poetry
Die dirty hippy commie scum
Christian Muslim Buddhist Jew
Democrat factory workin college student youth
My nervous system don't take no bullshit
Been dominating since the day
I touched the monolith
I only breed with sex-symbol worthy women
They stay at home and cook while I
Go out a make a living
Don't challenge my ego, don't step on my shoe
Otherwise the next wake that you
Attend might be for you
Grinding my teeth as I’m peddling uphill
The fight against ape hood is
Fate versus free will
We think we've advanced but
There's nowhere to go
Mammals stay captive to animal actions
So slowly we climb up this DNA brick wall
Addicted to emptiness, anger and pitfalls
Desire for space, territory, or lust
We'll eventually turn this whole
Planet to dust
There can be no peace when man
Is still a part of it
Purpose, perseverance
Wordless amoeba surface
To lead the first coherent paleolithic circus
Specific neuro-circuit's link man
And Neanderthal however, recent bio-chemical
Imprints conflict with primitive urges
It's full blown ontological warfare
Murdering memories in the future
Two million years
Peace is a word we often say
But it can't exist as long as
The ape is here to stay
I'm eighty-thousand years of natural
Selection comin through you ain't got as
Much aggression, possessions, weapons
I'll be damned if I get
Outdone by the next man
If your beliefs are different than mine
Then we gonna fight
Who needs peace when you can
Profit from being right?
I hold picket signs outside
Abortion clinic doors
Take what I want with force
And my God could kill yours
Involved with a species evolving so slowly
Genetically infantile, violent and holy
We think we're so smart but
There's not much to know
Caveman is still alive behind
Those robot eyes
Fully controlled by ten thousand
Year old instincts hands on the war button
Flinch and your world's extinct
This is technology for the barbarian
I see the future: the past
