lyrics
promiscuity is nothing more than traveling
there’s more than one way to see the world
and some of us like to stick close to home
and some of us are columbus
what can I say
nature always gets her way
nature always gets her way
and seeing the world through another’s eyes
is like busting a window in a house of lies
and in the end you make up your own mind
and there’s wide open spaces
and little cordoned off places
check em out
check em all out
take your time
how far is too far?
how much is enough?
you gotta test this stuff
how you gonna know
what you need, what you like
til you been around the block
a few times on that bike
how you gonna know
who you are, what you feel
til you felt a few things
that just don’t feel real
promiscuity is research and development
evolution begs embellishment
and baby you’re a star
you got to invisiblize society
when society gets cruel
just make like you are nature’s tool
which you are
nature always gets her way
nature always gets her way
and monogamy is that carnival trophy you earn
when you throw that ball
into that urn
it’s somewhat dumb luck
somewhat learned
and you just know when it’s your turn
and honesty is the hardest part
yeah honesty is the highest art
and honestly i myself just started
and eureka i’m less broken-hearted
how you gonna know
what you need, what you like
til you been around the block
a few times on that bike
how you gonna know
who you are, what you feel
til you felt a few things
that just don’t feel real
there’s more than one way to see the world
and some of us like to stick close to home
and some of us are columbus
what can I say
nature always gets her way
nature always gets her way
and seeing the world through another’s eyes
is like busting a window in a house of lies
and in the end you make up your own mind
and there’s wide open spaces
and little cordoned off places
check em out
check em all out
take your time
how far is too far?
how much is enough?
you gotta test this stuff
how you gonna know
what you need, what you like
til you been around the block
a few times on that bike
how you gonna know
who you are, what you feel
til you felt a few things
that just don’t feel real
promiscuity is research and development
evolution begs embellishment
and baby you’re a star
you got to invisiblize society
when society gets cruel
just make like you are nature’s tool
which you are
nature always gets her way
nature always gets her way
and monogamy is that carnival trophy you earn
when you throw that ball
into that urn
it’s somewhat dumb luck
somewhat learned
and you just know when it’s your turn
and honesty is the hardest part
yeah honesty is the highest art
