[01:49.54] The monkey sat on a pile of stone
[01:57.42] And stared at the broken bone in his hand
[02:03.89] Strains of a Viennese quartet
[02:07.89] Rang out across the land
[02:20.93] And the monkey looked up at the stars
[02:26.50] And he thought to himself
[02:29.48] Memory is a stranger
[02:34.51] History is for fools
[02:40.44] And he cleaned his hands
[02:42.58] In a pool of holy writing
[02:47.25] Turned his back on the garden
[02:49.60] And set out for the nearest town
[02:54.31] Hold on hold on soldier
[03:01.23] When you add it all up
[03:03.37] The tears and the marrowbone
[03:08.06] There's an ounce of gold
[03:10.36] And an ounce of pride in each ledger
[03:14.08] And the Germans killed the Jews
[03:17.14] And the Jews killed the Arabs
[03:19.09] And the Arabs killed the hostages
[03:20.79] And that is the news
[03:25.98] And is it any wonder that
[03:28.83] The monkey's confused
[03:31.73] He said Mama
[03:34.28] The President's a fool
[03:36.12] Why do I have to keep reading
[03:38.46] These technical manuals
[03:42.62] And the joint chiefs of staff
[03:44.71] And the brokers on Wall Street said
[03:46.43] Don't make us laugh
[03:48.02] You're a smart kid
[03:49.61] Time is linear
[03:51.46] Memory is a stranger
[03:53.35] History is for fools
[03:54.60] Man is a tool in the hands
[03:57.40] Of the great God Almighty
[03:59.45] And they gave him command
[04:01.80] Of a nuclea submarine
[04:03.71] And sent him back in search of
[04:06.66] The Garden of Eden
