Me And Julio Down By The Monolith by OK Glass Lyrics

I ain't nothing but a damn dirty ape
But me and him were the same
Until the monolith came
Now I'm troubled by the knowledge he gained
From some alien race
The day that Julio changed

The gift of sentience is wasted on the sad
I can't tell what he's thinking but it sure looks bad
I just want my best friend back, is that so much to ask?
When one lord giveth, which lord will taketh back?

There must be some dimension I can't perceive
He must be somewhere in some strange reality
But here at my feet, I feel his wide-eyed body breathing
I still see Julio, does Julio see me?

Now I ain't nothing but some damn dirty ape
But me and him were the same
Until that monolith came
Now we're existing on two different wavelengths
And I can't give chase
Ever since Julio changed
