"Said the Monkey to the Chimpanzee" by Wolf Kier
copyright 2012 2022 Wolf Kier

I saw it on the TV
and I had the sound turned down
"we're off to war" the caption read
politicians gathered round
And the children packed their underwear
and rode off on a train
and we'll never see
their sorry innocent asses again

What if this is?
What if this is?
What if this is?
The war that we don't win

What if this is?
What if this is?
What if this is?
The war that we don't win

One two three four
let's go fight another war
"sink or swim"
said the monkey to the chimpanzee

Now the desert sands are swarming
with a million sorry souls
armed with only video controllers
and out of juice cell phones
while the people back home
shoot each other for a dime
and the banks are holding empty homes
and reneging on all their loans

What if this is....?

What if this is?
What if this is?
What if this is?
The war that we don't win

What if this is?
What if this is?
What if this is?
The war that we don't win

One two three four
let's go fight another war
"sink or swim"
said the monkey to the chimpanzee

Solo

Said the monkey to the chimpanzee
"You don't look nothing like me
but we can both act like human beings
if we try"

ha ha ha ha

Said the chimpanzee, the smarter breed,
"Not on my time, no, siree!
A human cannot act like me
I never dropped a nuke"


What if this is?
What if this is?

"Those humans make me puke!"

What if this is?
The war that we don't win

What if this is?
What if this is?
What if this is?
The war that we don't win


One two three four
let's go fight another war
"sink or swim"
said the monkey to the chimpanzee

One two Three

Oh!
