Monkey Lyrics - Idealistic Animals - Dear Reader

Galileo, marrige of Figaro 

You have shown the world where we ought to go 

Mother, Mahatma, Madiba, together forever 

Wondrous things beyond what I can understand 

The television where I watched a Doctor grow a human hand 

Great woman and men 

You can say that again 

You are nothing like them 

What does it take to be great, is it fate? 

What does it take to be great, is it fate? 

What it takes to be great is a tortured state 

As a child you drew up an impressive list 

Astronaut, fire-woman, archaeologist 

Something that mattered 

Oh Darling, you had it 

what happened? 

What does it take to be great, is it fate? 

What does it take to be great, is it fate? 

What it takes to be great is a tortured state 

And fate 

So you can home 

Why would you want to be great anyway? 

Why would you want to be great anyway? 

What it takes to be great is a tortured state 

And I know you've got that made 

And fate 

You can go home 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go home now 

You can go
