Cover art for Lab Monkey lyrics by Alice in Chains

The lyrics relate to the events of 9/11 and the cover up.

to un-earth what really happened on that, takes a lot of digging and the "rabbit hole" goes pretty deep.

Anyone who talks about it and knows the truth, gets laughed at and dissed. On message boards they'll get nasty "comments" and talk smack to you.

While all the time, they are the ones who ultimately are the "lab monkeys" because they're eyes are "blind".

"End up in a cage" - I believe this relates to the FEMA camps the U.S. Citizens will end up in because of the government.

the 9/11 event, needs to be re-investigated and fully evaluated and that is what is meant by the "till we take a look inside"
