[verse 1]
oh, once upon a time there was a clumsy little kind
of neanderthal man
with his stick in his hand
his stick in his hand

[verse 2]
his woman was a hairy-legged stocky-lookin’
kind of firewood-gatherin’ thing
and the firewood she’d bring
would make him feel like a king

[verse 3]
many moons did come up and many suns did go down
when a wheel rolled by
much to their surprise
forever changed our lives

[verse 4]
and then the markets arrived and they learned to survive
by trading beads
sat around and drank twig tea
from a tea twig tree

[verse 5]
with their beads all exchanged they would count up their things
and head back to their caves
and compare what they had made
with the jones’s
[verse 6]
soon a woman would learn how her body could earn
a few beads to be worn
but this profession was scorned
when the righteous were born

[verse 7]
by three thousand and three deaf and blind could now see
that the righteous were dumb
they’d sunk to that proverbial rung
no longer played folks like a drum

[verse 8]
many people had died yet politicians still lied
and gave speeches downtown
screamed and stomped at the ground
but no one came

[verse 9]
you see, intelligence thrived and the righteous did die
or went away, and stayed gone
leaving we creatures alone
to grow this garden

[outro]
oh, once upon a time there was a clumsy little kind
of neanderthal man
