Mon key see and mon key doMa king ba bies, ea ting foodSmel ly things, pu bic hairWords of lo ve, in the airSparks fly, shoo ting outMa king sure that eve ry thing is wor kingI can't turn you downWe are pro grammed hap py lit tle chil drenMat ter o ver mindWe can not re sis so I won't fight itLove is a ma chineLove is a ma chine without a dri verThe facts of lifeThe facts of lifeA masterpieceBiologySmokey waterAir conditionedBoys 'n' girlsAnd automationChromosomesDesigner jeansChimpanzeesAnd human beingsMachines of loveMachines of loveStrong in body, strong in mindA love machine with the facts of lifeThe facts of lifeThe facts of lifeSo much sex 'n' violenceMust be a bad designWe're stupid to be fightingEvery nightThe monsters we createThey welcome us aboardThe best in advertisingFrom coast to coastThe girls and boys combineLike monkeys in the zooThe clouds have silver liningsLooks pretty goodPeople fall in love like in fairy talesI'm not sure I like, what they can doI'm afraid that God has no master planHe only takes -- what he can useFactory life, ice cream & pieFactory lifeSomeday we'll live on VenusAnd men will walk on MarsBut we will still be monkeysDown deep insideIf chimpanzees are smartThen we will close our eyesAnd let our instincts guide us
