Intelligent Animals

(专辑： In Search Of Elusive Little Comets - 2011)

They'd spend a lifetime
And fight over lines
Which you and me
Could never control
I'm feeling a sense
Of imaginable loss
Over people I don't even know

We used to be such intelligent animals
Ohhh
Lamenting the loss of intelligent animals

If Darwin could see
What we turned out to be
He'd probably admit he was wrong
So pray did St Christopher down on your knees
'Cause in 50 years we'll all be gone
Oh oh

We used to be such intelligent animals
Ohhh
So tell me where are these intelligent animals
Ohhh
Keep walking away you intelligent animals
Animals, animals

Ooooh now we behave like we lost all control
Now we behave like we lost all control
Now we behave like

Because Darfur is a place without history
Darfur is a place without politics
Darfur is simply a dot on the map
It is simply a place, a site
Where perpetrator confronts victim
And the perpetrators name is Arab
And the victims name is Africa
And it is easy to demonize
It is easy to hold a moral position which is emptied
Of its political content
This bothered me, and so I wrote about it

Oooh
Ohh, intelligent animals
Intelligent animals
Intelligent animals
Intelligent animals

And animals, animals
