[00:00.00] We are the animals
[00:24.24]Who have lost our hair
[00:26.85]Retained, some of our teeth
[00:29.34]And gained a choice
[00:32.16]We'll chase food, money and ***
[00:34.98]Until satisfied
[00:37.41]Then, when it's time to rest
[00:40.20]Ask 'whats next?'
[00:42.81]We are all animals (x4)
[00:53.31]It's hard enough to retain control
[00:56.22]When our instincts are egging us on
[00:58.77]With biologists and chemists
[01:00.81]Reducing our souls
[01:02.79]To four letters
[01:04.62]And when we think about it
[01:07.14]We're like a masterpiece
[01:09.30]Who's glimpsed the artist
[01:25.50]We are the machines
[01:28.23]Carrying on various genes
[01:30.81]Then discarded
[01:33.45]When the job is done
[01:36.21]We are the disciples
[01:38.94]Who have lost our way
[01:41.34]Kicked from our pedestal
[01:43.89]When Darwin burnt the book
[01:57.21]Its hard enough to retain control
[02:00.18]When our instincts are egging us on
[02:02.73]With biologists and chemists
[02:04.80]Reducing our souls
[02:06.81]To four letters
[02:08.58]When genes replace Genesis
[02:11.28]We're like a masterpiece
[02:13.29]Who's glimpsed the artist
[02:39.87]We liked to think we had a special place
[02:42.48]As if stars revolved around the human race
[02:45.24]But we're just mammals, just primates
[02:49.14]Like chimps or g'rillaz
[02:50.85]We see the hair on our face
[02:53.91]And look at another primate
[02:55.92]You and I, we relate
