Lyrics

Some talk about mental evolution
I think it's more like a stupid revolution
I'm not sure how it's come down to all of this
I think things have really slowed down
I'd make a billion dollars selling dummies by the pound
But common sense is always on the shortest of supply

Always thought that people would work harder
Always thought that people would get smarter
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no 
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no 

I thought maybe it was something with sons and daughters
Maybe thought it was something that they were pouring in the water
There has to be an explanation for all of this
It's like the wheel is heading towards the past
They can't read clocks, dial phones or count cash
Even chimpanzees can learn a new trick or two

Always thought that people would work harder
Always thought that people would get smarter
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no 
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no 

Always thought that we would be landed on mars
Cruising around the galaxy in silver flying cars
The ingenuity of man never seems to shine through
The simple minded out number us 10 to 1
IQs are dropping before it's said and done
Who's who in the kingdom of the dumb

Always thought that people would work harder
Always thought that people would get smarter
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no 
The answer is no, the answer is no, 
The answer is no, the answer is no, no, no
