MONKEYS REJECT EVOLUTION

MONKEYS REJECT EVOLUTION

-Author Unknown-

Three monkeys sat in a coconut tree
Discussing things as they’re said to be.
Said one to the others, “Now listen you two;
There’s a certain rumor that can’t be true;
That man descends from our noble race.
The very idea! It’s a dire disgrace!”

“No monkey ever deserted his wife,
Starved her baby, and ruined her life.
And you’ve never known a mother monk
To leave her babies with others to bunk.
On pass them on from one to another
‘Til they hardly know who is their mother.”

“And another thing you’ll never see
A monkey build a fence ’round a coconut tree
And let the coconuts go to waste,
Forbidding all other monks a taste.
Why if I put a fence around this tree
Starvation would force you to steal from me.”

“Here’s another thing a monk won’t do–
Go out at night and get on a stew;
Or use a gun or club or knife
To take some other monkey’s life.”

“Yes, man descended–the ornery cuss
But brother, he didn’t descend from us!”
