Hello, my fellow decorated monkeys
You see these other monkeys will never understand what it means to be truly decorated
Robbed of joy
Never understood what true freedom was
Reading all the time
Trying to top all classes cos losing was a crime
Bullied and mocked cause our sights were covered in glasses
Passes was the closest we could get to sagging cos that was extremely below the belt
Fashion was never an option to be a passion
Music and dance was never given a chance
Expectations were high to do better and be better
Even in high school where teens had to be teens
And never had to necessarily do better
But we clever, so we had to do better
Than our decorated parents dignity
You see decoration comes with great responsibility
We cannot be disappointments
Studying could heal better than ointments
So even though we were forced to believe in God
We understood that it's only because these other monkeys will always believe in God,
So the odds of us having a shot at the leading spots upstairs
Will be to believe because it's all about numbers
Our fathers and the mothers and the fathers and mothers before them
Our bosses and the bosses before them
Made sure we had everything we had to be just like them
And now here we are, yeah yeah
We made it here, yeah yeah
Amongst the unfortunate we are fortunate
Amongst the poor we are rich
Amongst the weak we are strong
Amongst the dull minds we are the brightest
We are the decorated monkeys of our time
Our children's children's children will be the decorated monkeys of their time
Their degrees and masters and PhD's
Now they see we're masters, but we choose not to apply that overseas
We are the decorated monkeys
They do not have the capacity to lead
We do
It's OK for us to be filled with greed
We are not going to vote for you again, yes please do
Cause we don't need you
We are the decorated monkeys
My skin is covered in foreign clothes
My tongue rolls like a foreign tongue
That's why you can never be like me
That's why you can never speak like me
That's why you can never think like me
They believe anything we tell them
We control everything and everything controls them
May God help them, but not even God will listen to them
Cause we built him a mansion
So their leaders could have an expansion
And now their leaders are our best distraction
We are the decorated monkeys
Always will be decorated
