Trou Macacq |
This is the story of the trou macacq, the pine box derby, the monkey track |
This is the story of the trou macacq, the pine box derby, the monkey track |
Not what I heard or saw on TV |
But what I witnessed entirely |
Each bend in the road was infact another curve on the monkey track |
Once upon a time we thought we were free |
And had control over destiny |
We saw ourselves a competent band |
Able to reason, prosper and plan |
But we had a chamber up in the moon |
Circumstance made us change our tune |
When the veil was torn from our face |
We became the monkeys riding the race |
MONKEY! |
You think you got the stuff it takes to break away! |
Boy youll be on the track every day |
Talent, vigor, drive |
Youll eat peanut butter the rest of your life |
And these last things you can arrange |
Find other people equally strange |
Stuff yourselves in the van and ride the pine box derby to the finish line |
I said: Chris P. rides on a serious plan |
Hes going to finish as fast as he can |
The Escalator takes it personally |
And does not drive professionally |
Charming Enchantress and Bones can run |
Even if the winshield wipers are on |
I the Broadcaster avoid police |
But the Bat was led into custody |
