Acoustic Apes Lyrics

A pill for sadness, a pill for fear, 

A pill that keeps you from wondering what we're doing here.

I don't know but I've been told, 

The soul's the only thing that never grows old.

Maybe life's a test, we're all here on a quest to be free.

The birds and the bees, they're still singing

If you can hear them over your telephone ringing.

Your phone dies, part of you goes with it…that's saying something isn't it?

Can we agree, this is way too much?

You can call me crazy, call me out of touch, just let me be.

The lord has come, they're right here, they're your neighbor, they're your peer.

Oh, but you got mean, you cut 'em off, 

Cause traffic was tight and you had a cough.

What should we do? 

Let's right up a proposal!

We've got the history of human knowledge at our disposal!

Look it up on the internet,

and set us free!

You ever been down in the muck, caught in the mud and stuck in a rut?

Put out your hand, see who's there

You might be surprised by who really cares.

Word on the street is you're a world class lover, 

Tell me what I gotta do to get you under your covers,

And make me believe.

Well, alright, 

One last verse,

To tie it all up, and leave you with some words.

Let it be, 

Oh, and be yourself,

But nothing really matters if the ice all melts. 

Are we the reason the universe existed?

That idea's always given me a little resistance

Being big brained apes on a rock in space

Sound pretty great to me.

We are free.
