Embrace Your Inner Monkey

Watch: ~ "Dance Like A Monkey" ~ by the New York Dolls

Lyrics: ~

You're designed so intelligent
Ain't no way that was an accident
C'mon shake your monkey hips
My pretty little creationist
Oh yeah!
Ain't gonna anthropomorphise you
Or perversely polymorphisise you - yeah
Little girl you look so sweet
You gotta dance like a monkey, dance like a monkey, child
You just started ten thousand years ago
Presto Adam and Eve and go man go
Abel died, Cain took his life
And headed straight to the jungle to find a wife - wow!
Non-believers blame it all on apes
It's monkey time - I want to see you shake
Evolution is obsolete
You gotta dance like a monkey, dance like a monkey, child
Stomp your hands and clap your feet
You gotta dance like a monkey, dance like a monkey, child
Oh one more time yo!It's monkey time!!
C'mon pretty baby, won't you take a chance?
Be my natural selection, dance dance dance
Exorcise your demons with that monkey grin
'Cause we're gonna inherit the wind

The song, 'Dance Like a Monkey' has lots of clever references to the evolution/creationism/intelligent design 'debate.' In the video clip, the monkeys in an evolutionary science exhibit break out and cause chaos in the museum, all to teach an intelligent designer to embrace her inner monkey.

Part of it is based on the Darwin exhibit at the NY Museum of Natural History. The Flying Spaghetti Monster also makes an appearance as it is in some ways the mascot of the anti-intelligent designers (as well as Pastafarians).
