Wake Up Pinocchio!!!
We do it to ourselves you know the old man said to me.
So blinded by our ignorance we think we're living free.
Masters of the Universe, so bright, so sharp, so wise.
Ha! Arrogant and self important - believing our own lies.
We live our lives in slavery - a bunch of blinkered fools.
Who only dream of lotteries or winning on the pools.
Arrogant little ape-men - that's what we really are.
With ever growing noses and strings pulled from afar.
Using little bits of paper to calculate our worth.
We tell ourselves we're civilised as we decimate the Earth!
Technology is our religion and profit is our god.
'till ashes back to ashes and underneath the sod.
While the unseen 'Puppet Masters' are laughing up their sleeves.
Controlling all the ape-man does and all that he perceives.
Stealing man's inheritance and blackening his soul.
To fuel their hellish furnace with hearts they've turned to coal!
The chimpanzees are playful
sure that life is just a joke.
The gorillas with machine guns laugh
and shoot at their own folk.
The monkeys burn their family trees
and dance round in the smoke.
The rich apes takes another soul
and another snort of coke.
While the Master rubs his hands in glee
at the wasted chances to be free.
The only one who can truly see
what fools we mortals really be.
Monkeys, bloody monkeys, just look at what they've done!
Monkeyed around with everything and stolen all the fun.
So now the world's bananas when it should be slightly nuts.
Yet still the monkeys monkey sticking in their monkey ruts.
It never rains but it simply pours
Banks have debts but they don't have doors
Paper tigers growing claws
to claw back cash in the credit wars.
Meanwhile the monkeys uncontrite
Still pretend they're good and bright
While their masters promise not to fight
and tell us all will soon be right.
Acid seas, failing crops
monkey magic's constant flops
monkey missiles, Monkey drones
monkey chatter on mobile phones
Humans lose when Monkey wins
suffocate 'neath banana skins
