Lyrics

Once upon a time, back in the day
There were cavemen
Neanderthals
And they didn't have stereos
They didn't have video games
They didn't have TVs
They couldn't even talk
They just grunted
[Instrumental]
So as you can imagine
Things were pretty borin' back in the day
One day, neanderthal was sittin' by himself
And he saw a female walk by
He thought to himself, "That looks like somethin' fun to do"
So he grunted, "Ung"
That's how house music started
[Instrumental]
Neanderthals
And they didn't have stereos
They didn't have TVs
They couldn't even talk
They just grunted
Course everybody grunted
So he had to think of somethin' quick
So he grabbed a log
And he started beatin' on it
She thought it sounded kinda cool, so she walked over
And he kept beatin' on it
And it was a success
So he, every day, he would go on and
Beat on his log some more
And he started gettin' more females
Course the boys noticed it
They started grabbin' stuff and beatin' on it too
Started beatin' on branches and trees and
All kinds of stuff
And that's how house music started
[Instrumental]
That's how house music started
[Instrumental]
Neanderthals
