The Lyrics

A stone-age take on "keeping up with the Joneses"...
Here's the original.
I'm coming out of my cave,
Thought I was doin' just fine
Got a, got a big spear
To hunt a brontosaur
But now I cannot compete
Because my neighbour's got heat
So I'm stuck with raw meat
(And) freakin' berries to eat!
Now he's scoring with chicks
While I'm left feelin' blue
Ev'ryone's at his pad
Coz they love barbeque
Now he's walkin' erect
And his tools are not blunt
Ladies think he's per-fect
What an arrogant c...aveman
Mono-brow he shaves, man
It's for show....
A T. Rex he's cooked; no ribs for me!
That dude's in control...

Jealousy...pissed off in prehistory
Sure as pterodactyls fly
Sometime soon, I'll club that guy
But I've got a tiny brain,
Evolution's shunning me
Hoping soon we'll have a fight:
Me and Mr. Fire-light!

I'm standing out in the rain
Morosely chewing the spine
Of a Raptor I trapped
While Ugg is nice and warm
He started off with a stick
Struck by a bolt, electric
He's developing quick
Thinks he's so "Jurassic"!
Now he's carvin' a wheel
And he's speakin' with words
While my domicile stinks
Of Triceratop turds
I've a sloping forehead
And illiterate grunt
Should've been me instead
Of that arrogant c...aveman
He says "Call me Dave, man"
What a joke...
My primeval looks aren't helping me
A face like a troll...

Jealousy...now he's using cutlery!
And he thinks he's lookin' "fly"
Sabretooth cat suit and tie
I wish he'd just move away
(or get stomped by dino-feet)
Always stoned; he bones my wife!
I hate Mr Fire-light!

Hey, screw ya!
Yeah, screw ya!
Ah-oo-gah!


Yes...the whole thing is wildly factually inaccurate: that's half the fun!

Thinking this song is worthy of a five is so easy, a Caveman could do it.

'His tools are not blunt' was a classic :) Excellent job again!
