Tim Booth - Monkey God Lyrics

We co-create our own fate

Everything’s connected

God in man, man from ape

Everything’s connected

We co-create our own fate

Everything’s connected

Man from stars, man from ape

Everything’s connected

My behaviour’s chemical, nurture biological

Determined by the stars in space

Don’t rely on suicide

Meet you on the other side

It’s not even your life to take

See things from the stratosphere

We’re so unimportant here

What’s the point in asking why?

Struggle of the underdog

Too much love or not enough

We die to live and live to die

Meanwhile in the stratosphere

Houston we’ve a problem here

Someone’s cut a hole in the sky

Planet in a Petri dish

Interference hit and miss

Soon there won’t be rivers to cry

God’s pitch shift way out of time

Created an ape

Infected with the spark of divine

Mix X with the Y chromosome

One to destroy

The other tries to find a way home

We co-create our own fate

Everything’s connected

God in man, man from ape

Everything’s connected
