Another cat amongst the pigeons
Another spanner in the scheme of things
I don't know why it shakes him up so much
He's so out of touch with me
It isn't easy finding something new
The Bible bashers beat you black and blue
Fire and brimstone raining down on you
But do you know it's true
They know what they can do
Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
Monkey Business, you'll see
I got you swinging from tree to tree

I'm never sure about what they want
They put their collars on back to front
They've got their answers and they don't like mine
But I'm only trying to help
They say I should be full of shame and dread
They point at Genesis and shake their heads
They don't know what it is that makes them tick
But I've views for them and it's not so romantic

Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
Monkey Business, you'll see
I got you swinging from tree to tree
Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
Monkey Business, you'll see
You've got an ape in your family tree
We don't want monkey business...
We don't want monkey business...
Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
Monkey Business, you'll see
You've got an ape in your family tree
Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
Monkey Business, you'll see
I got you swinging from tree to tree
Monkey Business, Mankind
I've got a theory that'll blow your mind
