Bad Apes

There are apes and great apes
And then there are bad apes
The bad apes are the kind who do heinous crimes
Without any remorse or conscience
They lash out at the great apes
Because they know deep down
They are bad and just don’t fit
When we catch them we lock them away
And sometimes simply let them go free
When what we really need to do
Is just put them and their supporters down
For the betterment of all the other apes
