DNA

So they say the Earth is breathing like an asthmatic crack addict
Quick fix pollution in her rivers and seas like too many drugs in her veins
So you got lost in the desert with your
Two little strands of caterpillar DNA
What you gonna do about it?
Do you believe there's anything you can do about it?
They say it's human nature...

12 strands of DNA, umda-de-um-dey-ah-dey-ah
12 strands of double DNA, umda-de-um-dey-ah-dey-ah
12 strands of DNA
(Is today gonna be like yesterday?)
12 strands of double DNA
(Who's to choose who's defining human nature?)

So I think I'd rather like to smell as well as hear the roses grow
Taste the lightning, dance the colours of the wind like a forest in flow
Or we could dance in the desert
I could kiss the tingle in your fingertips
You could tell me I'm beautiful, I could say...
I could look at you and say:
"You have become an angel...butterfly angel."

12 strands of DNA
(Is today gonna be like yesterday?)
12 strands of double DNA
(Is tomorrow gonna be like today?)
12 strands of DNA
(Is tomorrow gonna be something new?)
12 strands of double DNA
(What you gonna choose?)

Whose sun is this that's beating down from such an unforgiving sky
Why should I spend my time feeling like a bad excuse
Just because I'm human?
So are you
You wanna try something new (It's in the DNA)
It's gonna happen anyway (It's in the DNA)
Because it's human nature to be a butterfly

12 strands of DNA
(Is today gonna be like yesterday?)
12 strands of double DNA
(Is tomorrow gonna be like today?)
12 strands of DNA
(What you gonna choose, what you gonna choose?)
12 strands of double DNA
(Is tomorrow gonna be something new?)

Umda-de-um-dey-ah-dey-ah
12 strands of DNA
(Silver drops of the first spring rain)
12 strands of double DNA
(How much closer to infinity do you wanna play?)
12 strands of DNA
(Dew drops after the midnight rains)
12 strands of double DNA
(Spiderweb diamonds in a dancing spiral)
