like snow at winter's end,

they thaw and melt away.

the descendants of Don Juan.

crawling into puberty

at birth, we stumble on

to populate the earth.

beyond a foreign lake,

convent babies hide
Cadd9 G(no3rd) F#(no3rd)(add-5-9)
like a Friday steak.

the insemination dance,

founder and withdraw.

CHORUS A: we're drowning in hormones
Cmaj7/E
from our ma and pa,
Bsus4(add+5)/F#
from Eve and Adam
Cmaj7/G
after the fall.

animals turned human,

burn the law.
