Ape Uprising Lyrics


You called us animals

 We found the right and used it

 Kingdom of cannibals

 It's fight or flight

 Our strife continues on

 We shared your ancestors

 You kept us caged like monsters

 Simian manifold

 It's fight or flight

 Our strife continues on

 You found the might in

 Your opposing thumbs

 But our battle's begun

 Just a step on the rung

 Thought you buried my brain

 All your efforts in vain

 But our battle's begun

 Now you're biting your tongue

 All the world is your stage

 Until you rattled my cage

 Now that your missing link was

 Found in the shackled chain

 Death to the noble savage

 Life to the spoils of Kane

 Prodigal Caesar rising

 Rolling in leaves of rage

 Swinging on vines you'll find him

 Locked in his human cage

 Dragging this out through centuries

 Paleolithic maze

 Caught in an endless circle

 Chased in a fossilled craze

 Corpus of ill-intention

 Oedipus bound in chains

 Bored of his new inventions

 Bankrupt for all his pains
