Devo - Jocko Homo Lyrics
They tell us that we lost our tails
Evolving up from little snails
I say it's all just wind in sails
Are we not men?
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O
We're pinheads now
We are not whole
We're pinheads all
Jocko Homo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
D-E-V-O
Are we not pins?
We are Devo
Monkey men all in business suits
Teachers and critics all dance the poot
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O
Are we not pins?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
D-E-V-O
[some versions include the following bridge: ]
I got a rhyme that comes in a riddle
O-Hi-O
What's round on the end and high in the middle?
O-Hi-O
Together now, God made man
But he used a monkey to do it
Apes in the plan
We're all here to prove it
I can walk like an ape
Talk like an ape
I can do what a monkey do
God made man
But a monkey supplied the glue
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
Are we not men?
We are Devo
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
D-E-V-O
We must repeat
Okay, let's go

I can't take my eyes off it.
Absolute genius! This reminds me of Night Flight 😜😜😜
Weird as hell sh t
I don't even remember how I got here but this is a banger.
That's real now!
Annoying as fuck...devo are shit
White nationalists rise 🌞
Have not seen this for a long time.
Only DEVO can be this DEVO.
Classic song, video slightly racist today.
Happy New year 2020 !
Great Intelligent DEVO fans !
Here in 2020, we listen to loud rap about rape, killing cops and ranting about racism with autotune. Anybody notice how Mothersbaugh looks like Bill Nye here? Or that boogie boy is sorta kinda like the pip boy from fallout ?
if you switch the playback speed to 1.25x it increase the anxiety by 150%
My Mom and Dad were fans of Devo among other bands when I was growing up in the 80's. My Mom had a Devo badge. WTF. :) They weren't fan music types so finding that badge....
I wonder if they saw Talking Heads ever before?
DEVO helped David Byrne on
His solo album the Song
Wicked Doll !
@Guy Boost wow! didn't know that, thank you. he reminded me on David's video performance..
@oxiigen please watch The Video
That's Good DEVO posted by Electronictomato 1982
You can see how DEVO
influence David Byrne
in Mark Mothersbaugh s dancing
Thank You and share it with you
friends !
DEVO !
The True Pioneers Of Rock and Roll Music Videos !
DEVO is Ahead of Their Time !
This video is from 1975...
BEST VIDEO EVER!!!!!!!!!!
Love this! It’s crazy how Devo stood for devolution back in the 70s and 80s and it is even more evident today. Go to any Walmart and you can see how society and mankind has fallen by the wayside.
When MTV first came out and they lacked content, because there weren't music videos, they used DEVO as filler.
They had no idea that DEVO would be the high water mark of Music Videos.
This is shit
Pink guy?
We all are devo.
This is great. For decades I've always been trying to make weird music. Now I know I will never come close to this. It's over..now I can relax..
How did I end up here...
America's Kraftwerk. AMJ
blew our minds back in the day. smoked weed, watched these videos, devolved into pin heads.
that alarm!!!! Justice!!!!!!!!
Saw them in radio city ny 1983 or 3 don’t remember
This is some of the dumbest shit
This is why I'm 76 and still taking loads of psychedelic drugs
What’s your favs I’m pretty much an acid head but everyone’s got their favorites
Gëfägnïs Sïngäfëg
Psilocybin, Dimethyltryptamine and absinthe.
Nice man lots of people say shrooms are their favorite too. I figured an old timer like you would be more into acid but DMT is honestly better. Keep doing your thing👌
nuff said - Bijou Grandpa
If I suddenly watched some crazy ass, dressed as Boogie Boy, running towards me, I would be scared shitless in a nanosecond.
I'm really scared....
An original founding member of Devo asked to be compensated for his part in creating the band. The band refused and sued him claiming he had no part in it. He proved in court that they were liars. They settled with him. Nice guys.
Pure shit
When I got my first mohawk in Orange County CA back in 79, everyone would yell out DEVO!
The Golden Age of Ohio
what kind of music is this? DEVO what ? DEVO best videos ever
even more true today
class perfection
this is awful
I was bought up on 60s rock, not the pop shite, this is exellent, I discovered them from the akron album. Hence the painted wall at the start. Superb
If only our Congress was like this! We. Would. RULE!
Our Congress needs
To be Committed
We a New Government
Learn from History
Look what happened to
Presdent John Kennedy
Read the book
They Killed Our Presdent
By Jessie Ventura !
We need a new Government !
Probably the 15th or so time I have seen this and it still makes me disturbed yet oddly satisfied
90% of the views are from me☺️😋 I like mr devos dancing skills 👨🏻🦲👊
Those were some pretty snappy dance moves
If you think you understand Devo, you don't understand Devo. Not only is Devo strange to imagine, they're stranger than we can imagine.
DEVO IS THE SHIT!!! SO FUCKING TALENTED AND ODD! = DOPE
Mad as as a box of frogs and yet strangely brilliant. Love it! I bet at the time Devo really divided people
So this is how Beck learned to dance!
An Amber Alert came through while I watched this video. Somehow, it fit.
DEVO The TRUE PIONEERS OF ROCKAND MUSIC Videos ahead of Their Time
Why is the quality so terrible? I mean this is shit. The video and audio? The song is cool though of course
I bump this loud as fuck with headphones on smoking a fat bowl every once in a while.
Too Much David Byrne on vocals
That drill solo, is sampled from Stress
Suburban Lawns , rips almost as much as "Devo" .
Interesting video with Mark
https://youtu.be/GmT9qYed2RM
I don't see what the appeal is for these guys.. the song's not catchy, the music video unmemorable, not particularly good at their instruments. Influential? Absolutely. Good band? I will debate that until the end of time.. they're OK, but there were much cooler bands during the early 80s like Siouxsie and the Banshees and Blondie and shit..
Try The Residents you jagoff.
😻😻😻😻👁👁👁🤑🤑🤑🍦🍦🍦😁😁😁😜😜😜👾👾👾🤘🤘🤘🤘😘😘😘😘🤑🤑🤓🤓🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳😎🤓🤓🤓
lobotomy in audio form
Let’s make sure this important message makes it on the next space rover.
This song is out of control, in a very artist way....nothing comes close.
I think the begining started Slipknot
Crumbs, i freakin love this too much. Perfect in every way, from start to finish.
I am a Truther and if you are still asleep you will never see the messages hidden in mainstream Music, DEVO are brilliant but they as many others tell a story especially in this track, now you can go back to your slumber......
my fav devo song by far
How many people here know the singer is the artist from yo gabba gabba?
the original pink guy?
Top ten 'videos' of all time
Warner Bros. Records carried this? Amazing...
It begs the question: Are we not men?
Didn’t Justice sample the beginning for Stress?
JustOneGuy surprised me to say the least
Video West, anyone?
Damn. That video and music is one of the most original you'll ever see.
¿¡Stress!?
When you hit stuff like this, is a clear sign it is bedtime.
Then watch in the morning
You might learn something if you're not careful ,!
Nah. It's a sign you should stay up listening to Devo all night
Kids having a great time.Like most of us did.Devolution is more than real right now with this orange bastard and the evangelicals in WH..
What ?
Ok then let's Give more
Money to Iran
Like the Last Wesal did !
Today's Democrats Are are big Disgrace who don't care
About America
Or it's citizens
A bunch of crybabies
They Never Shine
Presdent John Kennedy s Shoes
Thank GOD I am not
A Democrat
Now I am A Independent
Enough Is Enough !
A bit surprised at seeing how many people actually hate this lol
Why ?
Why do you ask Pray Tell ?
This Video is still
OMG !
LMAO !
And
WTF !
1976: Devo devolves 1. The first Harlem Shake video! 2. The source for David Byrne’s character in the Talking Heads Once in a Lifetime Video (1980/81)
Been lovin Devo since hearing my older brother would blast them from his bedroom in the 70s but for some reason I keep thinkin of the rug rats theme in this lol. I know he did that too
Lol my Dog lifted his head when he heard the music in the beginning lol
So did mine. But then he did the same on Uncontrollable Urge too.
If I was a Science Teacher. I'd show this video and Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science" to them.
jocko no homo
Where it all began. HI in the middle O's on the end...
What's High in the middle and round on both ends - OHIO
What a crazy band, the right answer is yes we are all devo
Great stuff.
Someone please explain what is happening in the video.
Also at last part why were the devos tied inside sack?
When they came out, I was in Junior High. They're tunes and attitude always cracked me up.
Mark Mothersbaugh is a better dancer than Michael Jackson!!!!
They both went together in Double Dates
Because DEVO helped The Jackson Family on Their
Album s !
Inthejunior high in my hometown was a gym teacher named jocko who became known forever after this song came out as jocko homo. I think he was not a big fan of devo.
Why is De-evolution?
Poot?
Teh best music video
I clicked on this having no idea what it would be but I wasn't disappointed
That intro music is amazing.
70s trippin. You had to be there to be anywhere close to understanding it.
This came out in the 70's. Imagine how far ahead of it's time it was AND STILL IS..
Frank Zappa beat off to this song...
I Read that Frank Zappa
Loved DEVO
He said that DEVO
Is Too Far advance
For the sheep's and The Goats
Que es esa mamada?
