Primitive

Primitive

Yeah, that's how I feel

When I look in your eyes,

I feel primitive

Uncivilized

Like something

From out of the heart of the jungle,

Uncivilized

Foolish mind

Believing that passion

Is somehow a rational thing at all

And that's when you take that fall

I'm livin' my life

In such a primitive way

I was doing alright before you came

I said okay,

You said okay, it's okay

Tentative

There's nothing about you

That's even the slightest bit tentative

But you remain,

Still you're a woman

And yet in a way representative

Of woman kind,

Believin' the notion

That love and devotion will rise again

Why can't we just be friends

I'm living my life in such a primitive way

I was doing alright before you came

I said okay,

It's okay, it's okay

Just look at me

Feel like a river of quivering jelly,

No man at all

'Cause no man would take that fall

I'm living my life in such a primitive way

I was doing alright before you came

I'm living my life in a primitive way

Yeah,

I was doing alright before you came

I'm living my life in a primitive way

Yeah, I was doing just fine

Before you came
