Lyrics

Following my lust for wander everywhere I've ever been, I can't escape the sound of it - the sound of my screaming skin

My skin cries
My blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide

Following my trust in wonder I watch the circus begin
I can't ignore the scent of it - the scent of my screaming skin

My skin cries
My blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide

La la la la la la la
La
La la la la la la la

I'm a multicellular individual
You're way out of proportion!
We've got the hemodynamic connection
Don't call me germ!

Allowing for my strength to muster
My losses begin to win
Tropical winds start to bluster, raising the fur on my skin

My skin cries
My spirits fly
But I still owe some dread on this hide

Oooh

Yeah!
I'm a multicellular individual
You're way out of proportion!
We've got the hemodynamic connection
And don't call me germ!

Swallowing my pride no longer, I take the forbidden sun
If I have been sculpted by hunger, I'm not the only one

My skin cries
My blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide of mine

La la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la la la la

I'm a multicellular individual
You're way out of proportion, ah ha!
We've got the hemodynamic connection
Don't call me germ!

My skin cries
My spirit flies
But I still owe some dread on this hide

My skin cries
My blood sighs
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine

My spirit flies
My blood sighs
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine

My skin cries
My spirit flies
But I still owe some dread on this hide
