They tell us that we lost our tails
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind in sails
Are we not men?
We are Devo!
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O!
We're pinheads now
We are not whole
We're pinheads all!
Jocko Homo
Are we not pins?
We are Devo!
Monkey men all in business suits
Teachers and critics all dance the poot
Are we not men?
We are Devo!
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O!
Are we not men?
We are Devo!
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O!
Are we not pins?
We are Devo!
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O!
We go now, God made man--but he used a monkey to do it
Apes in the plan, we're all here to prove it
I can walk like an ape
Talk like an ape
I can do what a monkey do
God made man, but a monkey supplied the glue!
Are we not men?

[Some versions of this song include a second bridge:]
I got a rhyme that comes in a riddle
O-Hi-O
What's round on the end and high in the middle?
O-Hi-O
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind in sails
Are we not men?
We are Devo!

We're pinheads now
We are not whole
