Talking Heads - Facts Of Life lyrics
Your rating:
Monkey see and monkey do Makin' babies, eatin' food Smelly things, pubic hair Words of love, in the air Sparks fly, shootin' out Makin' sure that every thing is working I can't turn you down We are programmed happy little children Matter over mind We cannot resist so I won't fight it Love is a machine Love is a machine without a driver Facts of life, facts of life Masterpiece, biology Smokey water, air conditioned Boys 'n' girls and automation Chromosomes, designer jeans An' chimpanzees an' human beings Machines of love, machines of love Machines of love, machines of love Strong in body, strong in mind A love machine with the facts of life Facts of life, facts of life So much sex 'n' violence Must be a bad design We're stupid to be fightin' Every night The monsters we create They welcome us aboard The best in advertising From coast to coast The girls and boys combine Like monkeys in the zoo The clouds have silver linings Looks pretty good People fall in love like in fairy tales I'm not sure I like what they can do I'm afraid that God has no master plan He only takes what He can use Factory life, ice cream pie, factory life Someday we'll live on Venus Men will walk on Mars But we will still be monkeys Down deep inside If chimpanzees are smart Then we will close our eyes And let our instincts guide us Oh oh oh oh, no
