Eden (Can’t Get This Body Thing Right)
[Intro]
Oh my love, are you going away again?
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
Oh my love, will you be coming home someday?
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
Oh my love—
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
[Verse 1]
I'm eating too much food
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
I'm eating too little food
I'm eating the wrong kind of food
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
Can't get this body thing right
[Bridge]
I just want an apple and a handful of seeds
Why can't I live on an apple and a handful of seeds?
One two three four
One two three four five
One two three four
One two three four five
One two three four
One two three four five
[Verse 2]
Hey Adam, I'm getting it right
Swing your partner do si do
Hey Adam, I'm getting it right
Swing your partner do si do
Hey Adam (I'm gеtting it right)
Wait for me! (Swing your partner do si do)
Come with mе!
Adam, wait for me! (Hey Adam, I'm getting it right)
Come with me! (Swing your partner do si do)
[Verse 3]
There will be more gardens and beauty
And apples and serpents
And wisdom and children
And families and tribes
And nations and wars
And darkness, intolerance
Hatred, separation, kindness
Hatred, separation—
Kindness, kindness, kindness
And love
[Outro]
Oh my love, when will you be coming home?
Stop asking me
Oh my sweet darling, you must not worry so
Not 'til I get it right
