Maybe we're nothing but skin and bone Blare and rubber, eyes that blubber Teeth that bite, hands that slide And I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of man Maybe we're nothing but skin and bone Nerves that shatter, tongues that flatter Lips that mutter, lashes that flutter Mounds of dust and lips of ripe Twice as vicious as the words I typeUnder a ribbon of every stripe There's a grip that tightens, a dark that frightens A wise that crackles, a fear that shackles And I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of man And then that kinder creation Becomes a fine fixation All of a sudden With the parts we've hidden Because they are forbidden Beneath a hide of pain, you'll find a soul of stain While fists still beat, at heart's deceit And I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of man Maybe with nothing but a drum and drone I want to beat it 'til I get unknown Pig some skin, stretch it tight Make myself up overnight Maybe this is nothing but drum and drone Wanna beat it 'til I get unknown Dig my pin, kick up some stink Find myself a brand new kink Prick that berry and squeeze this ink Scratch out all of the words I thinkBefore your very eyes can blink And I'm trying to do the best I canBut I'm a limited, primitive kind of man
