Caveman |
| I want to live life duty free |
| Let my instincts take the lead |
| I want to take what I can get |
| Don’t want to choose don’t want to beg |
| I want down from this family tree |
| I don’t need no upward mobility |
| I want to unlearn what I’ve learned |
| Want to unearn what I’ve earned |
| Want to burn my bridges down |
| Find a place I can’t be found |
| This is my manifesto destiny |
| Tear down this awkward mobility |
| Because I’m tired of standing upright |
| The taller we become the more dollars we can grab from that highest branch |
| And then step on your back given the chance |
| But not me I’m a bipedal backpedaler just as sure-footed as I can |
| I’m no high society man |
| No suit and tie, no Dapper Dan |
| I’m no happy family man |
| I’m no husband, ain’t no dad |
| I’m a goddamn caveman |
| This upward mobility is more than I can understand |
| I won’t stand, no, I won’t stand for it |
| I won’t stand, no, I won’t stand for it |
| I won’t stand, no, I won’t stand for it |
| I’d rather be all hands and knees |
| Yeah, I’d rather be swinging in the trees |
| With the monkeys and the junkies and bums and sloths and jailbird canaries |
| Yeah that’s me I’m a bipedal backpedaler from sea to shining sea |
