	Story Behind the Song "Ape Intelligence" is Noodle Muffin at their twisted, cynical best. This song uses samples from an old "Planet of The Apes" record mixed with actual samples of evangelical preachers to produce hilarious results. This song demonstrates the inane absurdity of the "Born Again" movement and of faith healing. Perhaps this is payback for the Sias brother's strict Protestant upbringing! Lyrics Preacher 1: Okay, where abouts is the problem? Pathetic Woman: Usually it's right in through here. Preacher 1: Okay, so ... they said it would just get worse and worse? Pathetic Woman: It would just get worse and worse, and worse and worse ... Preacher 1: Okay. Pathetic Woman: And it has! Preacher 1: Okay. So, if you move around, is there some pain? Pathetic Woman: Yes. Preacher 1: When you move around ...? Pathetic Woman: Yes, like right here it hurts to bend ... Preacher 1: It hurts when you ... Pathetic Woman: Right in here ... Preacher 1: Stay it hurts ... Get in that position ... Stay right there ... Go! In the name of Jesus! Vera: Cornelius? Preacher 1: Thank you, Lord, now for healing ... there's the Power of God ... In Jesus' name ... In Jesus ... Everybody say "In Jesus' name". In the name of Je-sus! Vera: Cornelius? Preacher 1: Be thou ... There it is, right there, that's the Power of God. Be ... That's the Annointing, sister! ... Be ... thou ... made... WHOLE! Vera: Cornelius! I tell you, he has Ape intelligence! Vera: Cornelius! I tell you, he has Ape intelligence! Preacher 2: Alleluia! I want anyone else across the country now that has arthritis in their knees and stomach problems to be healed right now in Jesus' name. Pathetic Woman 2: Thank you (whimper). Preacher 2: You take it too from this annointing. In Jesus' name ... Vera: He could prove your theory about a missing link between the lowly human beast and the civilized ape. Preacher 3: I am crucified with Christ. Vera: Ape Intelligence! Guard: Now you'll see what comes of being too clever ... they'll remove your brain to study it. Preacher 4: Read the bible. Preacher 3: Be born again! Preacher 4: Read the bible. Preacher 3: Be born again! Preacher 4: There is no alternative. Taylor: You vicious savages! You've removed his frontal lobe! You vicious savages! You've removed his frontal lobe! Preacher 3: There's nothing wrong with that! Pathetic Woman 2: Praise God! Thank ya ... thank ya, Jesus! Healy: That is so much crap! Preacher 5: That song is just annointed, is all I can say. It's a precious, precious song. Preacher 6: That song is so powerful ... I ... I can't tell you how much I appreciate you bringing it to my attention ... Preacher 5: We gotta make a video of that!
