Mr Monkey
yesterday i went to buy a monkey
In the Trinidad emperor zoo
but the monkey take one look at me
And no " I am going nowhere with you
So I ask the monkey
What's the matter with me
He said "boy man is so stupid
They destroying their own planet daily
You just want to put me in a
cage
And hang me in your gallery
And show case me
For all your friends to see
Here I live in captivity
But at lease I'm with my own kind
All people doing is cheating on each other
And robbing each other blind
Man thinks they're Superior
But I don't think that's true
We animals should be free
And lock up you crazy people in the zoo
Every time you put in the TV
Man always trying to harm another man
Animals live thousands of years in the jungle
And never needed one police man
well to hear this monkey talking
it really caught me by surprise
I just stood there shaking my head
i just couldn't believe my eyes
the monkey said we animals are intelligent
but we cant let people know we are smart
Cause your doctors would put me on a table
take out my brain and cut my body apart
We are born with our clothes already
So we don't care what's on sale at JC penny
And we don't have to worry bout it getting dirty
When last you see an animal doing. Laundry
A mongoose was up in a tree
Now he come down and quarreling with me
" man does say how they're superior
And think they're smarter than we
If man is so smart tell me how come
There's only recession when they can print there own money
And can you tell me just one time
That you ever see an animal file for bankruptcy
And if we animal have a disagreement
After we will quietly walk away peacefully
But man will talk peace
And still threaten each other with nuclear energy
And woman with woman
And man and man getting marry
Tell me when have you ever seen
A same sex couple in our animals colony
Yes kaz" looking at today society
I feel sorry for humanity
So just go back to your car
And just leave her in man's captivity
look what happen to cecil the lion
when he try to communicate with your society
then the dentist gone back performing root canal
a murder just walking around free
i said listen here mr monkey
why are you talking to me
he said because man believe in evolution
So we all are one family
and the sad thing that's bothering me
is mans ignorance and stupidity
That's we does feel shame
to proclaim you as our family
