Well, they say about sixty billion years ago A little fish changed to a tadpole Sprouted legs and grew some hands Then it crawled out on the land Changed from reptile to a monkey, then a man So today, I took the Bible to my school But the teacher said that was against the rules She said my grandpa's a gorilla My dad's a chimpanzee And my little baby brother's a baboon Did Charlie make a monkey outta you? Do you think you should be living in a zoo? Don't you know that it's a lie? When it comes your turn to die You'll find out you're not a monkey but a fool Well, I've heard some farfetched stories in my day But the one I heard this morning takes the cake Well, I'm looking in the mirror Just checking out my rear But I can't find a tail growing anyplace! Did Charlie make a monkey outta you? Do you think you should be living in a zoo? Don't you know that it's a lie? When it comes your turn to die You'll find out you're not a monkey but a fool So I stood up to the teach' and told the class I can't swallow this baloney about our past! Evolution really stinks There's too many missing links To believe all this is just too much to ask! Did Charlie make a monkey outta you? Do you think you should be living in a zoo? Don't you know that it's a lie? When it comes your turn to die You'll find out you're not a monkey but a fool Did Charlie make a monkey outta you? Do you think you should be living in a zoo? Don't you know that it's a lie? When it comes your turn to die You'll find out you're not a monkey but a fool You'll find out you're not a monkey but a fool Don't let Charlie make a monkey out of you!
