They tell us that we lost our tails
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind and sails
Are we not men, we are Devo
Are we not men, D E V O

(I'm A Man) I'm a little girl when we make love together
["Hey Jude" by The Beatles]

Hey Joe, where you goin' with that gun in your hand
Gonna shoot my old lady
Caught her messin' 'round with another man

Yoddle-ay-ee, yoddle-ay-he-hoo. Yoddle-ay he-hoo

["Every Breath You Take" by The Police]
Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watchin' you
["Should I Stay Or Should I Go" by The Clash]

Should I stay or should I go
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'till the end of time

Should I stay or should I go

["My Generation" by The Who]
People try to put us down (talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around (talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (talkin' 'bout my generation)
Hope I die before I get old (talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation (talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation, baby (talkin' 'bout my generation)
(talkin' 'bout my generation)
My, my, my, my, my, my generation (my generation)
Well, talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-generation
