  • Disgusted by your weakness
    You have no right to live
    To know you is to hate you
    But your life's yours to give

    You monkey see, you monkey do
    You're always doing what they tell you to
    You're such a puppet on string
    You don't get it!

    I won't bow to something that I've never seen
    I can't believe in something that doesn't believe in me
    I'm not blood of your blood, I'm no son of your god
    I've no faith in your fate
    Still I find salvation

    You think you have the answers to every last detail
    In your eyes, you're the victor
    In mine you've all but failed

    You monkey see, you monkey do
    You're always doing what they tell you to
    You're such a puppet on string
    You don't get it!
    You monkey see, you monkey do
    You're always doing what they tell you to
    You're such a puppet on string
    You don't get it!

    I won't bow to something that I've never seen
    I can't believe in something that doesn't believe in me
    I'm not blood of your blood, I'm no son of your god
    I've no faith in your fate
    Still I find salvation
    Still I find salvation
    Still I find salvation Writer/s: DENIS MCCANN, GORDON ROBERTS, PAUL ARMSTRONG, RODDY MCKINNON
