0:16We are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees
0:20We are blisters on the earth
0:24We are not the flowers we're the strangling weeds
0:28In the meadow
0:32And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
0:36When we don't want to live alone
0:40So step into the vacuum tear off your clothes
0:44And be born again
0:49Pretend that you're alone now
0:51And everything's gone
0:53Just animal reflex
0:55There's noone looking on
0:57Forget about fashion
0:59Forget about the law
1:01Pretend that you're alone now
1:05I wonder what I'd do if I could wake up every morning
1:09With a clean slate
1:13I'd burn through the cities I'd tear through the towns
1:17Cos there's no deals to make
1:22So break out of the cages the delicate structures
1:25We cling to all our lives
1:29Cos we are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees
1:33When we were trying to fly
1:38Pretend that you're alone now
1:40And everything's gone
1:42Just primal desire
1:44No right and no wrong
1:46Forget about the future
1:48Forget about blame
1:50Pretend that you're alone now
1:55Pretend that you're alone now
2:07She's not waiting for tomorrow
2:15And she has no love in her eyes
2:23Oh no I wanna come down right now
2:31But oh no( ) I wanna get out right now
2:41Oh oh
2:46Pretend that you're alone now
2:48And everything's gone
2:50Just animal reflex
2:52There's noone looking on
2:54Forget about religion
2:56Forget about shame
2:58Pretend that you're alone now
3:02No numbers in your phone now
3:04There's nothing going on
3:06Just primal desire
3:08No right and no wrong
3:10Forget about fashion
3:12Forget about fame
3:14Pretend that you're alone now
3:19Pretend that you're alone now
3:22Pretend that you're alone now
3:27Do do do do
3:35Do do do do
We are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees We are blisters on the earth We are not the flowers we're the strangling weeds In the meadow And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves When we don't want to live alone So step into the vacuum tear off your clothes And be born again Pretend that you're alone now And everything's gone Just animal reflex There's noone looking on Forget about fashion Forget about the law Pretend that you're alone now I wonder what I'd do if I could wake up every morning With a clean slate I'd burn through the cities I'd tear through the towns Cos there's no deals to make So break out of the cages the delicate structures We cling to all our lives Cos we are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees When we were trying to fly Pretend that you're alone now And everything's gone Just primal desire No right and no wrong Forget about the future Forget about blame Pretend that you're alone now Pretend that you're alone now She's not waiting for tomorrow And she has no love in her eyes Oh no I wanna come down right now But oh no( ) I wanna get out right now Oh oh Pretend that you're alone now And everything's gone Just animal reflex There's noone looking on Forget about religion Forget about shame Pretend that you're alone now No numbers in your phone now There's nothing going on Just primal desire No right and no wrong Forget about fashion Forget about fame Pretend that you're alone now Pretend that you're alone now Pretend that you're alone now Do do do do Do do do do
