Song language: English
The Human Heart |
| In our day-to-day experience it has always been concealed |
| In the operating theater it now may be revealed |
| I saw the glistening human heart lying in repose |
| So tender and so vulnerable, beating and exposed |
| The human heart is a lustrous thing |
| A wondrous thing, the human heart |
| Look at the patient lying open wide |
| It cannot hide |
| The human heart |
| It has a passionate temperament, as everybody knows |
| Gushing grandiose sentiments as a toilet overflows |
| Throwing violent tantrums and prone to fits of rage |
| It can’t keep still, it rolls around in its ribcage |
| The human heart is a preposterous thing |
| A monstrous thing, the human heart |
| Enlisting sympathy with vulgar sobs |
| It pounds and throbs |
| The human heart |
| And yet it lives for love and duty at its own behest |
| A lifetime through of work to do with ne’er a moment’s rest |
| Sustaining vital organs, anointing them with blood |
| Devout in its vocation of vital organ-hood |
| The human heart is an untiring thing |
| An inspiring thing, the human heart |
| Despite the heartaches of the rolling years |
| It perseveres |
| The human heart |
| What strange abomination holds fancy over fact |
| What byzantine mutation would love what can’t love back |
| What kind of freak of nature forgives a heinous crime |
| And leads us towards as yet untraveled paths to the sublime |
| The human heart is an inscrutable thing |
| An immutable thing, the human heart |
| The human heart is an untiring thing |
| An inspiring thing |
| A preposterous thing |
| A monstrous thing |
| A lustrous thing |
| A wondrous thing |
| The human heart |
