The sun rose on the understory with a click of a switch The sub canopy roared when the business sign read open in neon lights Climbing viens up desk, stools, pygmies and bats Timecards and paychecks The apes howl when the push the buttons in their stomachs Hands play cymbols after a wind of a gear The beetles and the birds are all pollinating flowers grown in gardens of mansions I am the primate that swings from the man-made apparatus I am the vines that grow under flourescent lights from carpeted floors Let me climb these painted walls and flourish in this man-made habitat Electronic talking parrots eating toothpicks as a mating ritual The beast prays on it's employees and eats on their summer's harvested fruit The lion sleeps when it's antelope go home I am the primate that swings from the man-made apparatus I am the vines that grow under fluorescent lights from carpeted floors Give me the sun before the night Give me my wrong I forfeit the right Give me my kill and pay me well Give me my pay, so I pay my bills Hear this! My life has become dry because of you Insomnia Paranoia Anxiety Dependence Relentless Worthlessness You stole all my love You stole all my love, and I want it back We are animals swinging too far towards distant vines May your lips never touch your timecard again
