Monkey Killing Monkey

[Guest darkskyabove]

"Right In Two"

Angels on the sideline
Puzzled and amused
Why did Father give these humans free will
Now they're all confused

Don't these talking monkeys know that
Eden has enough to go around
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys
Where there's one you're bound to divide it
Right in two

Angels on the sideline
Baffled and confused
Father blessed them all with reason
And this is what they choose
And this is what they choose

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs
They forge a blade
And where there's one
They're bound to divide it
Right in two
Right in two

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs
They make a club
And beat their brother down
How they survive so misguided is a mystery

Repugnant is a creature who
Would squander the
Ability to lift an eye to heaven
Conscious of his fleeting time here

Cut and divide it all right in two

Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
Fight over life, over blood, over prayer overhead and light
Fight over love, over sun over another
Fight for each other for the ones who are rising

Angels on the sideline again
Benched along with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end

Cut and divide it all right in two
Right in two

Right in two
