Monkey See and Monkey Do.

Monkey See and Monkey Do


Keep burning them alive till you feel human
on the outside you can feed a itch
on the inside somethings growing
you burnt her cozz you thought she was a witch

people that live in glass houses
always seem to the throw the biggest rocks
if you kick a dog
does that make you human
just like if you judge me
by the colour of my skin
is it all part of the condition
sat at the bar
there goes another drink
now im thinking
are you really human
and whether
human really is the thing to be
maybe some of us are more so
than the others
i dont know how many different types
there are
and sometimes your more collective
than individualistic
though most of the time
you believe in the tribe of one
and have you ever noticed
some body calling some body else a sheep
theyve even used it on an advert
if i was polish i might say
dimey boo-shakah
thats just like calling a ship a sheep

keep burning them alive till you feel human
on the outside you can feed a itch
on the inside somethings growing
you burnt her cozz you thought she was a witch
is that what makes you human
just like if you judge me
by the colour of my skin
is it all part of the condition
sat at the bar
there goes another drink

now its got me thinking
who is it that chooses to be a sheep
is this like the matrix
the blue pill or the red
but the more
i talk to people
i realise its just words
that others are saying
echos im counting in my sleep
although one day this might happen
i will never call you a sheep,
your a sheep
your a sheep
your a cuckoo
your a fox
your a battery
your a rat

it was all just a part of the condition
i guess maybe i am a human too
as i watch my mother burning
flames bringing her to life
inside my heart is beating
who is it that decides
because on one hand
i could write redemption
on the other i could write revenge
on one hand i could write your my enemy
on the other i could write my friend
If you built a big enough bonfire
could you burn them all
and how much of an individual are you?
is it you against the whole wide world
are you the only one that gets it
everybody else is wrong
would you rather be a dog than human
would you rather be a human dog
and did you see her burning
was it your eyes that watched the flames
would you please tell me what you were thinking
id be interested to know
even more than if you knew her name
just out of curiosity
honestly not to judge
so i suppose
maybe it doesn't really matter
what you say or think at all
but if you kick a dog
are you human
or are you something else
is this all just a part of the condition
can i truly sacrifice something
for someone other than myself
with no expectation of reciprocation
give everything to take nothing back
i could build lots and lots of glass houses
you could throw the biggest stones
lets celebrate our birthdays
everyday we die
outside theres something growing
inside you can feel the itch
id rather be dead than human
and why did they burn her
is it all a part of the condition
or was it just because
someone started a fire
and please could you tell me
how many of you really
thought she was a witch
