About

This two part song dominates Devo’s second LP, describing a prophecy within the de-evolution mythos of the band Devo as “suburban robots monitor[ing] reality,” hopeful for the coming of their savior, Mr. DNA. The idea of de-evolution is clear throughout the song, as is Devo’s idealogical stance on h...

Smart Patrol / Mr. DNA Lyrics

[Smart Patrol]
[Verse: Mark Mothersbaugh]
(He's been with the world)
I'm tired of the soup du jour
(He's been with the world)
I wanna end this prophylactic tour
Afraid that no-one around me
Understands my potato
Think I'm only a spud boy
Looking for a real tomato

[Verse: Gerald Casale]
(He's been with the world)
I'm tired of the soup du jour
(He's been with the world)
I wanna end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Understands my potato
I think I'm only a spud boy
Looking for a real tomato

[Verse: Bob Mothersbaugh]
(He's been with the world)
And I'm tired of the soup du jour
(He's been with the world)
I wanna end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Comprehends my potato
Guess I'm just a spud boy
Looking for that real tomato

[Chorus]
We're Smart Patrol, nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock, we work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes

We're Smart Patrol, nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock, we work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes

We're Smart Patrol, nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock, we work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes
(Shove it, man)

[Guitar solo]

We're Smart Patrol, nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock, we work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes

[Mr. DNA]
[Verse 1]
Wait a minute, something's wrong
He's a man with a plan
He's here to do us a favor
A little human sacrifice
It's just supply and demand

[Hook]
Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some genes

Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some genes now

Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some-

[Verse 2]
Wait a minute, something's wrong
He's a man with a plan
His finger's pointed at Devo
Now we must sacrifice ourselves
So many others may live
Oh, baby, we got a lot to give

This monkey wants a word with you!

[Hook]
Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some genes now

Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some genes

Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert, Mr. DNA
Mr. Kamikaze, here to spread some-

One, two, three, four
