Homo Sappy Blues - Demo
A jaw, a leg bone
A reconstructed skull
Like continents and oceans
Died so young
What God sent you
Sent you from your cave
I need your wisdom
Homo sapien
Path of migration
Is marked upon a map
Looking like a tattoo
On a kid's forehead
What God sent you
Sent you from your cave
I need your wisdom
If only for a day
What God sent you
What God sent you (ooh)
They die young around here
With a hunger in their guts
A taste for vodka
Their friends faces on their shirts
Last year they killed one
Just for his shoes
Tell me what God sent you
I got the homo sappy blues
What God sent you
What God sent you (ooh-ooh)
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh
A reconstructed skull
Like continents and oceans
Died so young
What God sent you
Sent you from your cave
I need your wisdom
Homo sapien
Path of migration
Is marked upon a map
Looking like a tattoo
On a kid's forehead
What God sent you
Sent you from your cave
I need your wisdom
If only for a day
What God sent you
What God sent you (ooh)
They die young around here
With a hunger in their guts
A taste for vodka
Their friends faces on their shirts
Last year they killed one
Just for his shoes
Tell me what God sent you
I got the homo sappy blues
What God sent you
What God sent you (ooh-ooh)
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh
