[Verse 1]
They tell us that we lost our tails
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind in sails
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
[Verse 2]
We're pinheads now, we are not whole
We're pinheads all, Jocko Homo
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
Are we not pins? We are Devo
[Verse 3]
Monkey men all in business suits
Teachers and critics all dance the poot
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
Are we not pins? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
They tell us that we lost our tails
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind in sails
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
[Verse 2]
We're pinheads now, we are not whole
We're pinheads all, Jocko Homo
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
Are we not pins? We are Devo
[Verse 3]
Monkey men all in business suits
Teachers and critics all dance the poot
[Chorus]
Are we not men? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
Are we not pins? We are Devo
Are we not men? D-E-V-O
