What's in a name?

Can you call a monkey a monkey
If it won’t call you a man
Will it suffice to say
They think there better
If they don’t readily share their plans

Can you bear to listen to their chatter
Even if you do not understand
Are you jealous of their affections
How they seem to have common bond
If to them your daily grind is non eventful
And theirs it seems is truly felt real fun

Can you call a monkey a monkey
If it won’t call you a man
Are you less of a man because they are who they are
And you can’t seem to comprehend
Are you looking at them often in spite
And use the little time spent with friends to gripe
Is this your mission in your short life
To share unbridled common hate with friends, kids, and wife

Can you call a monkey a monkey
If it won’t call you a man
And after all was said you heard was done
Why would you still pretend
still act as if you are a man
split your hate outside and in
when you found your mom was kin?
Remember science class in tears
man and monkey never blend
