In the Days of the Caveman

When you go on camping trips

You're stuck right out in nature

Foraging the forest like a primate

Using sharpened tools instead of hotplates

You thumb and forefinger

Supposed to show you're not a wild beast

You can hear their noises at night time

They don't have to keep a certain bedtime

See in the shapes of my body

Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys

Sometimes when I lie awake

I hear the rainfall on my tent fly

I think of all the insects that are sleeping

And wonder if the animals are dreaming

See in the shapes of my body

Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys

In the days of the caveman

And mammoths and glaciers

Bugs and trees were your food then

No pajamas or doctors

And when I finally get to sleep

I dream in Technicolors

Well, I see creatures come back from the ice age

Alive and being fed inside a zoo cage

See in the shapes of my body

Leftover parts from the apes and monkeys

In the days of the caveman

And mammoths and glaciers

Bugs and trees were your food then

No pajamas or doctors

In the days of the caveman

And mammoths and glaciers

Bugs and trees were your food then

No pajamas or doctors
