Macaque Failure

[Verse 1]
There's a philosopher I once met
He showed me many things
He told me things of the world
His face was unusual
But it could tell a story

[Chorus]
With rich detail
Rich detail

[Verse 2]
Sometimes eating, sometimes eyes closed
But there was always that face
And its knowledge of things
He never spoke
He needed not to

[Chorus]
He needed not to

[Verse 3]
He sits in a zoo in North America
Has no other in his habitat
He's originally
From West Africa
