I see so many that feed on greed
Money is the only thing they think they really need
But these monkeys with ties on will get what they deserve
Monkeys in suits, gluttons, only thinking of themselves to preserve
Humans like to pretend they aren't animals
They rather enjoy thinking they are important and calling themselves mammals
They stink up the planet with their filth and their pathetic, corrupt governments
They lie, betray, spend their green paper and slowly waste away
Republicans and Democrats fight with each other while our country fails
Our outdated system falling apart in front of my eyes
Our system of two parties needs to say goodbye
But no matter what humanity is just monkeys in suits and ties
I think it's just humanity that needs to die
I tire of hearing these see through speeches
I tire of these idiots with their one sided views
I tire of the foolish rich, self-serving leaches
I tire of those who only care for those who they can use
Flush this race of fakes down the sewer
Flush them from the planet which they don't deserve to live on
Flush them from their capitals and from their palaces
Flush them all until they are gone
Our cities spread like a virus over the land
Our pollution is now getting out of hand
The monkeys like to sit and play politics
They would do just as well to sit in the dirt and toy with sticks
Presidents, dictators, senators
All monkeys in suits, all fake, power hungry whores
Bills, constitutions, laws, religions and rights
All to keep the monkeys in line, even so back and forth they fight
Humanity, hiding from the monkey inside
So use your toothpaste and your hair gel
Cover up the animal and make sure to do it well
So use your cell phone and go to your job
Lift your head high and pretend you are not a slob
Use your computer and go to the bar
Name your government party and drive your car
Speak your ignorant, dated religion and spend your money
Lift your head high and pretend you aren't almost a monkey
The world shall not end when we end
Just the false society of pretend
The world will breath a sigh of relief when humanity is no more
But so much suffering is still in store
