lyrics

The big brown bear
Shakes her body so carefree
Catching fish in the river

Or the baboon
The jaw a big proud bone in the wide morning yawn
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there

I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones like you are
I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones like you are

Both of us, sensuous
The alarmed undressing
The wounded eye, the ruffled ride

Cause neither one of us is safe
Our naked bodies they are spoken of before and woken in a maze
And kneeling to the demons
To the thieves who tightened up my freedom

So take it back
Skin and hips and my soft breasts
I don’t want to have them no more

I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones like you are
I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones like you are

I wish we were mere spirits embracing
I wish we were mere spirits embracing
I wish we were mere spirits embracing

Among the worms and the snails
Is where I’ll lose my shame

I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones like you are
I am a flesh like you are
I am a bones
