He's sitting alone
In a warmless dwelling that night
He's just pounding black stones
So he could make a fire for some light
'Cause he's older then you
But he's not Uncle Lou
For he is early life

CHORUS:
Neanderthal is man
Just with a lot more hair
He writes out his whole life
Onto the cave room's wall
Cuz he can't speak out
Syllables in a proper paragraph
He's a Neanderthal of the past

Maybe he was smarter
Imagine it, him talking with lots of birds
He could have been lot taller
Causing him to have an array of fur
And yet he's so close
To how we are now
He was much different

CHORUS 2:
Neanderthal is man
Just with a lot more hair
He writes out his whole life
Onto the cave room's wall
Cuz he can't speak out
Syllables in a proper paragraph
He's a Neanderthal of the past

[GUITAR SOLO]

CHORUS 3:
Neanderthal is man
Just with a lot more hair
He writes out his whole life
Onto the cave room's wall
Cuz he can't speak out
Syllables in a proper paragraph
He's a Neanderthal of the past
A Neanderthal of the
Past
