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 awoken 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

​

 

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
