Animal Nation |
| I didn’t meet you in the jungle |
| Swinging from a tree |
| I sat down at the piano |
| You were playing with me I couldn’t believe all the things you could do The apes I’ve seen were in the zoo |
| They say we are unique with this language that we speak |
| But you have proved them wrong |
| Skinner and Chomsky, how could they be so blind |
| With evidence this strong? |
| Intelligent life is all around us Intelligent life is all around us When you watch King Kong or The Planet of the Apes |
| Upon your video screen |
| When the animals die, tears fill your eye |
| And you question what you’ve seen |
| Intelligent life is all around us Intelligent life is all around us Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Look in your eyes |
| That’s where I come from |
| Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Talk to me now |
| I am listening |
| You can search the internet |
| You can use your video phone |
| To call another friend |
| If we gave you all the tools |
| You can do whatever you want |
| Who knows when this will end |
| Intelligent life is all around us Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Look in your eyes |
| That’s where I come from |
| Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Talk to me now |
| I am listening |
| Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Look in your eyes |
| That’s where we come from |
| Hey, bonobo woman |
| Hey, bonobo man |
| Talk to us now |
| We are listening |
| Bonobo calling me now x12 |
| Starting to hear the things you’ve said |
| Getting to know what’s going on in your head |
| There’s no humans on the line |
| But there’ll be plenty more there in good time |
| Dolphins, cats, and elephants |
| This is not some wild romance |
| Just look in their eyes and say it’s not true |
| Look in their eyes, they’re checking out you |
| Communication with the Animal Nation |
| We are in communication with the Animal Nation x20 |
